I would go with a conventional water softener and add a reverse osmosis system for drinking water. If you're concerned about salt, remember that the softener only adds as much sodium to the water as the amount of minerals it removes. Get a demand system and it will use very little salt.

I bought my system from Ohio Pure Water; I saved about a thousand bucks over what a local installer wanted, and it has worked great for almost four years.
