If the Universe is not just expanding but accelerating then you couldn't visit all of it, not even it you were a photon of light and moving at the speed of causality, not even if you had a infinite amount of time at your disposal. So in what sense would such a universe be "finite" and how would it differ from a universe that was "infinite"?

I already answered that.  It would take an infinite range of coordinate values to label all the points in an infinite universe, but not in a finite one.
