Help finding rims

I recently got an itch to sell off old bike parts to fund and build a cyclocross ride for some fun. Nothing serious, just for piddling around dirt trails over the summer. For tires I'll likely run some Rivendell Jack Browns at 33mm wide or maybe even something else at 35mm wide and I want a wide rim to match the tires profile. I'm having trouble though finding a rim that is 28-32mm wide and is machined for brakes. I suppose I could run disc brakes since I don't have a fork yet, but I'd really rather stick to canti's.

The only things I've found so far is Sun Ringle Rhyno Lite. Is there anything else I should be looking at? A sweet rim I missed?

Should I really just run a disc brake because it works better and gives many better options for rims?
