Surprised you don't have the 17-55 2.8 EF-S considering you have a 40D. Really, really nice lens and optically equal to the L's, though the build quality isn't quite on par, but still very good. The extra bit of reach over the 17-40 is quite useful and the fast aperture even moreso in low-light situations or when you want nice bokeh. I've had mine for a month or so now and it was some of the best money spent. Only con is it's an EF-S which is only an issue if you go full-frame at some point.
im kinda waiting to see if a 5d mkII comes out soon or a 17-55 f2.8 is usm mk II that fixes the problems that the 17-55 has right now. but i agree with you the sharpness and the low light performance of the 17-55 is hard to beat. IMO which is arguable the 24-70 doesnt beat it (unless you have it on a 5d though)
That should be a good choice, I've been thinking about picking one of those up myself, however every time I get a tele-zoom I never use it. But I have their 18-50 f/2.8 and I've had the 10-20mm both of which are in their EX line like the 70-200 and I've been very impressed at IQ and build for the price.

Nice....But I will be really using this lens a lot!! It half the price of the Canon one and lens is like tank!! haha Thanks again
Went to best buy the other, played around with the Canon XSi!
Wow, that came owns! I want it really bad now haha.
Nice....I don't know what deal up in Norcal is but down here the XSI price is dropping a lot since it was release a few months ago. it time to save some $$$... I have been looking at the 40D lately and I really want it....
i prefer sigma over tamron... Sigma is a very good substitute for expensive Canon lens. Never used a tamron but my friend have one and it looks cheap from the outside. thats just me hehehe
