Does anyone already have the new DO lens, the 70-300 DO IS USM? What's it like - image quality, size, weight, etc.? Is it worth the money?

I'm interested in this lens, because it's small and inconspicuous - I can't imagine myself walking on the street with a big, fat, white 70-200 L.

Here's one comparison example
There has been quite alot of talk about this lens the last few days
,check out the most recent threads here (pg 2,3 etc)

The general concensus seems to be that it has an L price tag but is not as sharp as one ?! It is better than the other options in that range though-the 75-300 and 100-300
For discrete photography it could well be worth the money....
