For those who have or have used both the MBP 15 and the 17, how would you compare their keyboard & trackpad layouts, in terms of comfort to work on?

I love the 17 screen when I see it briefly at the Apple Store, but wonder if it would be comfortable enough to work on without a separate mouse or keyboard. The 15 feels more comfortable to type with, but it doesn't have the same screen real estate or high resolution option that the 17 offers. I'm just not sure about the 17's distance between the keyboard and the edge of the computer or the gap between the trackpad and the keyboard.

Anyone gotten a 17 and wished they'd gotten a 15 because they couldn't get comfortable working on it?

Thanks
