Good points.  I'd thought variety might have more bearing on 
flavor/sweetness than type.
Size might be a consideration for some folks - some of the rabbiteye 
types get pretty large; some of my dad's plants almost require a 
ladder to pick clusters in the top of the bush - some are easily 8+ 
ft tall and the clumps may well be 8-10 ft wide
