Hmm very tempting indeed, but no cash at the moment.
I'd like to point out that Ben's lens is the older 28-70 2.8 model not the current 24-70 2.8. But it looks like the older lens is the one to get, check out the photozone review:
"The performance of the Canon EF 28-70mm f/2.8 USM L came as a surprise because its optical quality exceeded the EF 24-70mm f/2.8 USM L (two samples tested). The lens doesn't really show any significant flaws - the resolution figures are very high and distortions and especially vignetting are very low. The degree of CAs is pretty decent for a zoom in this range. The build quality is very good with only the reverse zoom extension as a minor downside. "
