I prefer post excerpts and believe that when readers visit our homepage, they have nothing in their minds about our blogs and list of excerpts is like a menu for them to choose a fresh food to ‘eat’. It’s really effective because they are likely to be lazy to scroll down the screen to see other posts (in case complete posts are on homepage) and excerpts are above the fold.

I think there is no benefit at all of showing full posts on the homepage from blogger point of view. But if you are showing up the posts excerpts, you will have more posts on the homepage, this in turn gives readers a lot of options (posts) to choose from according to their interest.

I personally prefer to have a little chunk of text with the good old fashion “continue” link, I made that change about 6 months ago and my page views went from something like 30k a month to like 150k per month.
