I highly recommend the silvretta 500. I've got them mounted on some short light skiis.
I've done trips of 5+ miles kick and glide with my lightweight Kayland boots with no problem. I've skinned 10+ miles with the same boots, no problem.
I have a pair of fritschi's that need some mounting, but from what I've read/heard they seem like an awesome backcountry binding.
I've used three and four buckle AT boots and did black diamonds with them. The release is pretty good, but not the best. And it's a heel-only release, so I wouldn't recommend doing anything that you're gonna be falling on anyway.
They are an all-around really solid versatile binding.
Edited to fix some typeo's
