Default pedal or palm control?

I am planning on making the jump to an airgraver here soon, but I have been back and forth on wether to go with the palm control or the pedal control. Brian M. let me try out a palm contol a while back, and as I really liked the smoothness, it seemed to me that I had less control than with the pedal, mostly becuase it would really wind up when I went to pop out a chip at the end of my cut, and I found myself subconsously pulling on the ring to make it go rather than pushing it like you're supposed to. I learned to pedal engrave, and people like what they are used to, so knowing this, I figured it would be helpful to get some outside opinions. So the question is, Once you get used to palm control, is it better than the pedal airgraver, or is it simply a different way to make it go? Brian
