Pyrrho,
This is a question one has to remain agnostic about for the time being. All we know from observations of the microwave backgroubd is that it is at least a few times the size of the observable universe. My guess, which is more like a matter of taste, would be that it is finite and wrapped up, and that our visible universe is a super tiny patch of the whole. I would think that bc the observable universe looks geometrically flat, and that could be because we only observe a miniscule part of a curved whole.
