If you only have room for one tree; get a grafted tree that has 4 or 5 different varieties in one. I have such an apple, pear and cherry.
I wouldn't recommend different fruits on one tree; they always tend to get into a powerstruggle.
I get my trees from Dave Wilson. You can also find a bunch of information on their website, just google them.
Cherries are easy children too.

PS besides resistance to disease and rootstock, cross pollination and chilling requirements are equally important.
