There has been much discussion on alt.swimming.rec (or something like that) on the topic of fatskins, but not much on jammers, aquablades, and regular speedos.  I would think that you should wear whatever makes you feel faster.  I personally think that hi-tech suits do nothing but coddle the mind.  

Swimming is a total mind game.  If wearing a jammer makes you faster in your mind, by all means wear the jammer.  It may or may not be hydronamically (sp?) superior, but who cares?  If it makes you swim faster, that&amp;#39;s what counts.
