If you mean dirt/unpaved trails when you refer to "trails," then a suspension fork may be a good idea. If on the other hand you simply mean dedicated paved bike trails, then you probably don't need the suspension fork (IMHO).

The other thing to consider is your local bike shop, especially if they include adjustments with your purchase. I just bought a hybrid (no suspension) and it came down to my preferred LBS (which offers lifetime free adjustments) and what they sell. If you are going to maintain it yourself then it does not matter.

If you decide you don't need the suspension fork then, consider one the Trek FX's (7.2 or 7.3) or Specialized bikes (Sirrus or Sirrus Sport). Good luck.
