I had a 15" glossy and loved it. I got a 17" matte and actually still love it. I would have to say that neither of them really had my swearing by it. Don't believe the hype over photo editing. You can edit photos on any screen so glossy or matte isn't a big deal.
Just pick the one that looks best for you and you'll be fine. I will say that color looks good on the glossy, much better than the matte, but if you get the newer models with the LED display it might not matter as much.
