Default Applicator Pads?

Any difference between the various applicator pads? I picked up some Meguiars pads at Wal Mart for a decent price. These are the yellow non cloth kind. I also have some that were given to me in a goodie bag at a show, that have the cloth on it...

Is there any to stay away from?

foam pads are easiest to use and transfer very little heat to the finish. Foam also introduces the least amount of scratches to your properly prepared finish.
