If you take ballistics into consideration a better comparison can be made between the 10 mm and the .357 mag, not the .44, which is considerably more powerful.
To answer your question, I would buy a 10mm instead of a .44 because there are many scenarios where I would prefer to carry a semi-auto than a revolver. The glock 20 (full size 10mm) is a beautiful weapon as is the glock 29 (compact 10 mm). I know there are some other companies that produce firearms chambered in 10mm also. It's not dead and I hope it doesn't die. I know I'm not the only person who feels 10mm is a great round!
