I didn't think there was much climbing in the Orlando area. I still have my standard double and I like it. The hills around here are not enough for me to change it really. If I had the funds I would get a backup bike with a compact for when I travel to do more challenging rides.

You will be fine with either. If you are happy with the standard, there is no need to change that. If I were you, I would try to find a friend with a compact, or even go to a bike shop or performance and ride a compact before purchasing compact rings.
