Two you might consider: Swenson Red has been pretty reliable seeded; its flavor can win over people who insist on seedless. Petite Jewel has small berries and mostly seedless; looks like it's coming in with a good crop this year. Nice in muffins. There's another, larger seedless Swenson variety that's supposed to be good, but I have not tried it.

I tried the usual northen seedless types here (Canadice, Vanessa, Himrod, etc.), but too much winter vine burying and frequent late spring frosts pretty well discouraged me from that direction.
