With all this talk of pfd's and concern for hyperthermia and wet/dry suits, etc, I was wondering how many folks have tried using the inflatable pfd's during this sweltering summer? If you dump and want the flotation, just pull the tab. If not, you've got your pfd on yet are not wearing insulation you don't need in 90-100 degree temps, and have plenty of freedom of movement. Then you still have the foam pfd for cold weather, when that insulation is appreciated, and it hasn't suffered through a blazing summer of uv sun damage. Seems like the best of all worlds.
