I recommend a 250 if you can find one, if not then a 350. I recommend those because as far as i know those are "safe bets", since the 500 sometimes has issues and the 150 lately has been replaced in the box by an unsupported HVR-1600.
i bought last week a 150 and had to return it since an HVR1600 was in the box. i bought a PVR350 instead (the 250 is hard to find), and it works great.
