Yes. The 24-70 2.8 II is one of my favorite lenses for daily use. If you buy it now you get 300 Euros Cash Back in Europe. For the 70-200 2.8 II you get also 300 Euros Cash Back.
2 x 1D X, 2 x 1Ds Mark III, 5D Mark II, 350D, some new camera and lens prototypes, almost all the latest L lenses and some Zeiss lenses,  Hasselblad H5D-60 with almost all lenses, Gitzo and Manfrotto tripods, Elinchrom Ranger RX Speed System, Sekonic L-758DR and a lot of other stuff

I gave my new 24-70 a workout last night at a preliminary dress rehearsal for our spring Home School Play.  There are not many students in the school, so everyone gets involved, and they do a great job.
 
Because of the low light, I used aperture priority and took the whole evenings group of photos at f/2.8.  This is a bit of a step down, since I've been using wide aperture primes in the past, usually at f/1.8 to f/ 1.4.
 
I was particularly happy that this wide view at 24mm was sharp along the edges with minimal CA's.  I did see a few on the edges of the white dresses, but Lightroom took care of them.
I put the vignette on the image, just playing around with the LR settings, its still a preliminary photo since its the first night.
