I would go for a 1.5 .

Mine is a (TSOP flashed) 1.0 which is VERY noisy (2 fans, one for case/cpu and one for gpu)

My sisters is a more recent one (not sure, 1.1-1.5?) and is MUCH quieter

1.6 and up seem to have issues with modding

You can find it in the usual places....

I have a hw modded 1.6 PAL box myself. I have a problem where I only get Linux to give a green screen when I use the SCART connector.
