I owned the 24-70mm F/2.8L up until November of last year. I sold it right before the release of the II version. So right now I have nothing between 35mm and 70mm. I seldom used it. I am hoping the new II version will be as good as promised. If it is I may rethink what I carry as a walk around.

I am not sure what your budget is, but with a few of the lenses we have talked about, an extender and a 5D II you would be getting close to 4 grand. I know the old saying glass before body, but if I were starting over I wouldn't take the 5D III with the 24-105mm kit lens off the table. The 1D type autofocus could very well do more for your photography than having three primes on one of the other bodies.
