sweet!

ive got the 5d2 and the 24-70 as well...its fantastic

tho I have to say, im very partial to my 70-200 2.8 is l...its glorious

as far as the canon 70-200 being lower quality vs the nikon...the canon 2.8 IS/L is currently ~1650 (without rebates) and the nikon is ~2100...so the difference is about 500...but the build quality is similar, and from what Ive read, the canon 70-200 is an incrementally better lens vs the nikon one...but incrementally

nikon generally has better wide angle lenses, canon has better telephoto...this is a very general statement, and when I say better, its..very incrementally

so it stuns me that the price is 500 different...but then again, the D700 costs more than the 5D2, and they perform very similarly, but the 5D2 has twice the resolution...so...oh wells nikon
