Mark,

most does support :N as well as :n as all commands to most are case
insensitive.

Most has several capabilities I don't believe are in less. These include:
1. Multiple window support as mentioned
2. Binary format for viewing binary files
3. Choice of wrapped and non-wrapped display of long lines with
    scrolling for non-wrapped lines. 
4. When switching files, the cursor allows display of any other 
    file in the file list. (:N followed by up or down arrows to move
    to the desired file without seeing intervening files.) 
5. Many options for display of non-printable characters in text mode.
