Thoughts from all greatly appreciated, need to pull the trigger soon...
I would put them at par with the rest of the domestic J seats in the AC fleet and for comfort, I would put them ahead of the rock hard J seats in the 321. If I had to choose between a narrow body or a 762 for a red-eye from the west coast, I would grab the 762 hands down. For a trans-atlantic, I think I would try and find a way to get on a 763 or better.

Depending on the load, if you can score an empty row, the back of a 767 is actually better than the front of a 762 IMHO.
