CAT6 is definitely more future proof.  You can run 1 GB over both CAT5e
and CAT6 but it's likely that CAT6 will eventually be able to handle
even higher speeds.

I also agree that if you can run some of the small diameter "smurf
tube" conduits since it will make it easier in the future to backhaul
fiber, etc, through the same spaces.

Also, make sure whatever you run is rated class-2 or class-3 for in
wall use.  Some cheap cables are not rated for in wall use and
technically can spread a fire or toxic fumes if there is a fire.
