There is also the Venus 8lb. memory foam. However, everyone that has bought it found that it is really 4lb. So, that would be a gamble unless you are willing to return it.
They have a few other types at overstock, but I have not tried them so won't comment.
You say "I am looking for a little different "feel" and a slightly firmer surface." I don't think you will get a firmer surface by adding memory foam. Between the 2, the Sensus is more dense, supportive and firm. The main drawback being that it sleeps a bit warmer. If you mainly want to add softness with more breathability, then the mem-cool is probalby better.
Unfortunately, I have not found the perfect combination of density, support and coolness. Maybe hard...

I weighed it in the plastic bag it came in at 35 lb.s. So, slightly more than 5lb. density based on my calculation. Sizing seems pretty good (I did not measure), a little smaller than 1 of my pieces of latex.
Initial hand feel is that the surface seems slightly rougher than the Sensus, and it springs back a little quicker. The bamboo cover is 60% polyester and 40% bamboo rayon.
There are some of the usual off gassing issues. Probably less than other memory foams I have purchased. Maybe due to the "natural" process.

Supposedly Aerus comes with a 10 yr. warranty (see sleepwarehouse and some other places). Not sure how you would collect though. It should last several years. I have some memory foam from Costco that still seems good after a number of years.
There might be an initial breaken period, were it loses some firmness from when new (I think DianeK has noted this on Costco foam). Denser should last longer. 4lb. should be okay, and 5lb might last longer.

How long does this stuff last? A few years?
Also is Mem-cool on Overstock relatively the same as Aerus?

I think I have decided to buy the 2.5" Natural Aerus 5lb and try it on my bed, if for some strange reason I am feeling great it will be temporary solution...or permanent I guess. Just makes sense to start there and work down from there. Just have to order it and wait a month or so :( The joys of living on an island. Hopefully I can get it from Sam's club, its about $100 cheaper than Amazon.

I went to three stores; my goal was not to try to buy anything, but rather to get a feel for what is firm, medium, soft, and what is in the mattress to make them such. I plan to make a modular bed and really wanted to get a feel for what all the numbers felt like so when I order I will be getting the correct firmness and materials etc… I am not going the route of a spring bed, obviously. My objective at this point is to make a bed that I can change in case I don’t like it, but with minimal money...

If you are comfortable with memory foam and know that you really like it, then I would go there as well ... but I'm not ... even though I do like the feel of certain combinations (mentioned in another thread).
So the comparison would really be between latex and memory foam in terms of what feels good to you..... just to simplify matters ... Unless of course you want to go in the direction of an "old style mattress" with cotton, horsehair, wool etc over springs ... and that's the topic of another thread here.
The link to Rocky Mountain is a memory foam...
