I prefer bullhorns for the extra leverage when climbing out of the saddle, but that's just my preference.
Why don't you just put some on to try 'em out. If you don't like them, sell them on eBay and put your drops back on.
You can get syntace bullhors for $12.50 at chucksbikes.com. That's a pretty cheap experiment.
Might cost ya a bit more if you're running a brake as you'll need a TT lever or a cross lever. Those can be had reasonably cheaply as well though. Perhaps even from members of this very forum (Where better to find a spare brake-lever than a bunch of people who run, at most, one brake?).
