1. It's going to take your butt a couple of weeks to adapt to sitting on a saddle.
2. Saddle shape is often a much more important factor than padding.
3. Saddles are like shoes - everyone's fit is different, and what is great for me might be hell for you.
4. Padded bike shorts/bibs can be very helpful for comfort.
