To IS or to not IS?? that is the question!

Ok, so I'm getting a new lens in the coming months, been doing a bit of research, and want to know, I am getting the Canon 70-200 F2.8, but can't really decide whether to get IS or not. None of my other lenses have IS, and I seem to do fine with them Thoughts??

I would always choose a lens with IS if it were available (and incidentally, I've always done so).

IS is useful at any focal length, not just for use in low light, but whenever there is instability (eg, you're on a boat, or it's very windy).

If you have the budget, go for the IS version.
