I definitely agree with that - memorization is the best way to play. I don't know anything yet, though - so the issue arises ;)

Part II to this question: (This came up in my lesson yesterday). How do you look at [large] chords? Do you read them on the staff (like you would if playing piano/keyboard) or do you only play large chords by name (D7, G, etc)? This came up because I've been learning to play chords by name, and the book I'm going out of started an intro to chords using only 3 and 4 strings (i.e. G and G7 on only the top 3 strings).
