they are almost similar in price. $999 vs $1299.
is the Canon worth th extra $300? I know Canon will have better resell value.
and is the canon IS really worth the extra $600?
I heard Canon's L series version II is coming out in the summer..is this true?

if you are using the canon hand held alot, then yes the IS is worth every penny. I am extremely happy with my 70-200 f/2.8L IS and use it almost exclusively hand held - even at 200mm. It's a huge investment, but if you get the chance to try both side by side I'm sure you'd agree.
