I'm glad I got my R3 version, looking at the edits made to the US version to remove blood (like House of Flying Daggers) - despite the R rating:

(I don't trust DVD Beaver for PQ comparisons/judgments, but I assume they have it right about the edits made to movies).
My R3 version also has a great DTS.
However, the R1 has a lot of extras, apparently.
So if you're looking for uncut, with DTS sound, go for the R3 (assuming you can play R3 DVDs) - I picked mine up for $15 from http://www.play-asia.com/ months ago.
If you want the extras and don't mind having the movie cut, go with the R1 version.
