Contoured paddles vs. Flat paddles

Howdy folks, Currently I am using speedo's contoured swim paddles and they work great, but it is time for me to move up to the next size. Is there a difference between these paddles and other "flat" paddles (meaning will one or the other be more effective for training)? Or does it just come down to personal preference? Thanks

    Reviving a zoombie thread... The OP asked for comparison between contoured paddles and flat ones, the replies were turned into paddles vs. no paddles. I have the OP's question in mind: Flat vs. contoured (ergonomic). I have a pair of contoured ones, which are very comfortable to use. But the standard ones seem to be the flat ones. Are there specific advantages of the flat ones?
