I'm also considering the 70-300 IS, if it can deliver the results I want. Price is good too. Used to have the 28-135 IS and it was really decent. Wonder how the 70-300 IS compares.....

Good link offering an alternative view.

The only question is: For the price that you are pay, are you willing to go through all those "customised" inconvenience?
