Brendan:
I recently had to make the same decision. After trying out both  
solutions (eCommerce and Ubercart), I settled on ubercart. It seemed  
more mature. I also had a book that helped get me started (Drupal for  
Dummies). It was simply easier to get ubercart working for my  
application. Also, I have software downloads that need to be part of  
the store and ubercart had better support  for that.
Good luck,
Bill
