Mmmmm.. cider =)

This is exactly the type of thumbs up/thumbs down response I was looking for. Looks like I'll be making a move for the OS version as soon as I can off the other two and get paid for the last few gigs.

Oh, and Silkstone.. the weight doesn't bug me about the bulkier lens. For sports, I'll have it on a monopod, and for concerts, I really only have to worry about shooting the first few songs anyways.

Even though it's really only the difference between one ISO setting to another, since I'm shooting in 1600 most of the time I'd want f/2.8, it should make a big enough difference from the f/4 to justify itself.
