I checked some references but the one I have chosen was the LP2950 which has the 5V and the 3.3V versions.
I believe that the specs are better than the LM2936 for output current ( 100ma against the 50ma ), dropout voltage and others.
I don't know if there are better ones out there in the market but other guys can post their thoughts too.
