Hardtail vs. Full Suspension (for a guy which is 320lbs)

The story is simple. I have a TREK 4300 bike. I am about to trade it up.
I feel it is not a great bike for my size (320lbs).

I have multiple options.
One of them is to get a better hardtail like the Gary Fisher Hoo Koo E Koo.
For the same money I can get a specialized FSR XC full suspension.

I have been looking around, and did not find any answer about what is best for a guy that is 320lbs.
Does full suspension really makes a difference and can be of use with my weight? Should I ride a hardtail until I loose a significant amount of weight (I am starting a diet)?

Appreciate your opinions
