Physically and electrically I don't think there's much of a difference. But socket3 boards are more likely to work properly with POD and sometimes have support for 3V chips.Generally going with a board that has socket3 is better, because it indicates it is newer.

Socket 2 Overdrive is usually a ZIF socket, so it is easier to change CPUs.
