My two penneth on image stabilisation is that they are well worth the money if you don't have to worry so much about separating the subject from the foreground. I use a 100-400mm LIS as my every day long and I regularly 'get away with' 1/60 at 400mm hand held! Admittedly this is really pushing it and its only ever done when there are no alternatives such as a pod or a faster shutter speed or higher ISO but it can work.
My shooting assistant has a 28-135 that I've tinkered with on the 10d and MkII and it works fine, in fact its probably going to be added to the kit bag instead of a 70-200 (non IS) that I was planning.
