how do you choose a bike? Are the shapes and sizes to bikes?

I'm looking to bike more often (around town for errands and to work which is only 15 mins [driving] away from my home) to get in shape.
I'm 5'3" and 250 lbs and I've had probs with bikes before because of my height and I was wondering if there were certain measurements I should look for or do I just sit on them all and choose one?
Also, I don't plan to do hard mountain biking but my area is a little hilly, what speed bike should I get?
 
You can only get a bike that will fit you at a bike shop so start there and they will answer any questions you will have. A mountain bike is not very good for the road.
