I'm looking into training indoors for winter and have ruled out rollers becuase of limited time and space. I was to by a trainer but I don't know what to get.

You actually have 3 choices here: Wind, Magnetic and Fluid
Wind and fluid have a power curve that most closely matches real world riding. Wind is cheap, but very loud. Fluid is expensive, quite and excellent. Magnetic is quiet but typically does not mimic real world conditions as well as the other two. It does depend on the manufacturer on this one, as (you guessed it) the more expensive ones perform better. Check out this link: http://www.geocities.com/almost_fast/trainerpower/
