Bamboo fabric - is it as comfortable/breathable as cotton?

Dunno if it's just because I'm in humid Florida or if I'm just "hot blooded", but poly, rayon, et al, really bring on a sweat, especially in bedding linens. Anybody have any experience with the new bamboo?

    I have not heard about bamboo fabric so I cannot help there.

    I do know that in hot climates you should never use synthetic fabrics only natureal. If you had 100% cotton you would be better. NO polyester, rayon,et al mixed with the cotton or it will not be a cool fabric.

    Since bamboo is a natural fiber it should be cool provided there are no synthectics mixed with it.

    softer and more comfortable also a little more expensive.
