as mentioned by dave, I've heard the extension tubes are fantastic.
however, it is nice to have a 100mm prime lens too
I'm curious how the 100mm F2.8 compares to the 100mm F2.8L
I'm thinking at such a short range you're really paying the extra for the Image stabilizer. Which in all honesty, would be a nice addition. I think the IS would help a lot, with macro you basically always need to be on a tripod. It would open up mobility considerably.
I also don't find many situations where I want to use my macro, so that's one big point in favor of the extension tubes Dave was recommending and only a fraction of the investment.
