The one I just got is a bit thicker than my first one, and I must say I enjoy the extra padding.
My other one works just fine though, and I bought it in a miscellaneous gift section of an unrelated store. (Though, I guarantee I paid more for it there than I would have at a proper sporting goods store).
The other thing about a slightly thicker mat that I like, is the extra insulation it gives from cold floors. Not an issue in the Bikram's class, of course. More relevant for when I practice at home. I think I remember you mentioning your class was a bit chilly?
