Router Suggestions

I'm going to need to buy a router for my new BYOAC project. Can you guys suggest the size, brand, and power of router I should be looking at?
I'll be doing lexan cutting and button flush trimming on the CPO, slot cutting for t-molding etc. Plus I'd like a router for cutting door hinge recesses for non BYOAC projects.
The problem is I haven't used a router since 8th grade shop class back in 1988 so I don't know where to start. We used Porter Cables and they were NICE, but I'm thinking more like Craftsman or Black and Decker since I won't be using it much.
My specific questions are whether there is a mini-type router that can do this work and whether I need a plunge router...I'm not familiar with those at all.
Thanks for your help...

I have a Makita plunge router and I love it.

Do a search for router you'll get over 20 pages.

True...I figured it was off-topic and didn't even think to search. Nevermind.
