Mulling over the basement ceiling

The Mr. and I are considering using ceiling tiles in the basement remodel. We want to box in the ductwork with sheetrock, but we'd like something a little more interesting for the body of the ceiling because it's so close to our heads.
We like both of these options from Armstrong:

tintile



and wellington (which is available stock at our area Lowes- I think)

Has anyone used these products? What do you think? I like the idea of not trying to finish the sheetrock on the ceiling, flat on my back with dust up my nose and in my eyes...
