If you're going to mostly be on pavement, then the road bike would be best. But if you anticipate some trail riding, then the AnyRoad would be an option. As far as I can see with the specs, the AnyRoad will buy you more space for the 32mm tires. But that's about it unless the bottom bracket is higher like a true cyclocross bike. I can't tell since Giant doesn't talk about the BB in the geometry. It also looks like the AnyRoad has more of a sloping frame so may let you have the handlebars higher up for more relaxed fit. Can't hurt to testride both and see.
UPDATE: Just saw a similar thread (albeit a little older) on roadbikereview
