I keep a roll of Kodak 400CN in the bag as backup
and have shot 5-6 rolls over the year.I find it pleasing,
yes maybe a bit contrasty,but thats find for me:)
I get the lab to print the proofs on colour paper for two
reasons:
1-Its cheaper by $0.10 a print
2-Sometimes i get a nice sepia print out of it.

The Kodak seems to
have a higher contrast and more dramatic effect, whereas the Ilford is
more 'creamy'. �I absolutely love the Ilford.

You should bear in mind though, that many processors will 
automatically
assume you want it printed sepia - hey why else would you use black 
and
whitre, eh? �Ideally you want it printed on true B&W paper, but 
failing
that I would recommend giving the printer an example of the sort of
colouration you want - and stress NOT SEPIA!!!
