help me pick bindings for my Donek Phoenix

Bleh, Now I am stuck buying on-line after the folks failed to hold the
bindings for me, and I one to name names so be wary of Any Mountain in
San Jose Ca.
I have already asked this in another thread, but I was hoping for more
eyes in a new thread.

Now back to my dielemma, I have ordered a Donek Phoenix 163w, and I
have a low
end pair of Salomon boots, but I am planning to upgrade to a higher end
Salomon
boot sometime next season(perhaps Malamutes), given this information
which of the following bindings do you recommend:

Salomon SPX4: $139
Salomon SPX5: $179
Salomon SPX7: $199
Ride EX: $145

Is there anything else I should be looking at? Are the SPX more or less
equivelent to the SP series from before? Given that I have ordered a
Donek Phoenix, and I have those low-end salomon boots, but that I will
most likely try to upgrade to a stiffer pair of boots next season, but
that is the only upgrade I want to have to make next year. Mainly, I
want a pair of bindings that will play nicely with the Phoenix and
Salomon boots so I won't have to think about upgrading them for a
couple seasons.

thanks again,

Never mind, I picked up a pair of Salomon SPX7's
wish me luck with them

I suspect you'll do just fine with 'em, especially for what you paid (saw
the other thread). I've always found the Salomons very comfy - I've got an
older pair of SP6, and a aet of Catek FR's w/ SPX6 straps and highback, good
stuff indeed.
