Honestly, I would go with a Gillette Slim Adjustable. You can get them from 20-50 bucks on eBay and they are a razor that will last for ever. I've got nothing but great things to say about them. Being adjustable if you have a trouble spot dial it down and viola. Here is one for 28 bucks
I cannot recommend this razor enough. It shaves like a Gillette Fatboy but at a fraction of the cost.

Tube is fine. I've used Proraso green, Speick and Jack Black Beard Lube they all did ok. Still have them for traveling but at the house I foam up. I get a much better shave and less irritation if I use Checke and Speake pucks. YMMV It really doesn't take me that much longer in the morning to make a lather than out of a tube.

Edit 2: I'm a dumbass
You can do whatever works for you. There is nothing about a DE razor that prevents it from working with Barbasol canned foam or Gillette foaming gel. That said, I think it's fair to say that most of the folks here enjoy using soap and brush for a variety of reasons.
Personally, my progression went something like this:

Try some beard lube - it's less of a hassle than going the whole shave oil + badger brush + cream/soap but gives comparable results (particularly when you shower shave). The 6oz tube lasts me over a year of every other day shaving.
Neat! Hella expensive, though: http://www.amazon.com/Jack-Black-Beard-Conditioning-Shave/dp/B000HP9M34
I've had trouble forever with Razor Burn / Razor bumps. I've tried just about every product out there. Here's what I've settled in on:
The only other thing that worked at all was Tend Skin but I hated the stuff. It's salicylic acid in an alcohol solution. If that sounds painful to put on your face after shaving that's because it IS. It also stinks. And leaves a white powder on your skin. And drys it to hell and back.
Fewer razor bumps but my girlfriend (now wife) wouldn't come close because my neck stunk and tasted bad to kiss. Stick with the jack black stuff.
I would recommend bring your preferred razor, and grabbing a bottle of Jack Black Beard Lube. I just picked up a bottle myself a few weeks ago to use with my shavette and I really love it. It doesn't require a bowl or brush, just pour out a bit and rub it on your face. It goes on clear which is the main reason I got it, then you can see everything while you shave. It washes off easily from my face and my razor, and it really has helped with irritation I used to get.
Is it the best shaving cream/lotion out there? I'm not sure, but I've tried a bunch of different shave soaps and creams and this is on par with some of my favorites. The fact I don't have to mess with a bowl and brush is a major plus, and the fact it goes on clear is even better.
Use beard lube. I know it sounds weird but it goes on clear so you can see where you are shaving. Been using it for years and it's amazing.

If you are really dedicated to mediocre non-lathering shave creams...
To be fair, a few of these are actually pretty decent. The Kiss My Face and Pacific Shaving Company Caffeinated creams are actually pretty good and work well with or without a brush (though better with a brush). These two are also pretty easy to find at retail, almost every retailer I found that carries Cremo also offers at least one of these two.
Having said that, using a brush with a traditional soap or cream will almost always result in a nicer lather than any of these products.
I found that DSC's Shave Butter clumped up in my razor. I changed to this and like it much better.
I used a Norelco beard trimmer for the longer stuff to keep my beard looking trim and groomed. I use a mach 3 turbo razor to shape the areas around my beard with Jack Black beard lube. It's better than shaving cream and gives my neck and cheeks a very smooth feel.
Just make sure the neckline of your beard sort of coincides with the shape of your jawline.
I hope this helps! PM me if you have any more questions about beard maintenance.
