pix 501 vs pix 506e?

I work for a small company of 15 people, three of which are remove using vpn to access internal boxes. I currently have a 506 that is old and not updated. I am considering buying a new pix mostly for the os image upgrade and the vpn clients.

I will soon have a full T-1 installed. Both the 501 and 506E are rated for through put more than can possibly come in through the T-1. Should I get a 501 or a 506E, or should I get a smartnet (which one) and not worry about upgrading the hardware?

My current pix is at 6.3(3).
