Just got my 50d in Nov, but I purchased all this in '09 so far:

Canon 50 f1.4 (might be selling it)
Canon 85 f1.8
Sigma 30 f1.4
Canon 430 II
(2) Sunpak 422D
Impact umbrella kit
Alzo softbox

Should be ordering a Canon 24-105 whenever someone gets one in stock as a walk around lens. Debating between the Sigma 10-20 or the Tokina 11-16 UWA. Then that should be pretty much all for now

I've bought, sold, & traded some gear, since I last posted here.

Previous Post

And I've since purchased a 40D for my wife. She has gotten bitten by the photography bug, and now has this craving to have her own gear, and still use mine.

I got 5D mk II, 50L & 24L mk II yet in 2009. I would say that might be enough for this year, but you never know

5D Mk II and an extra battery.
That's it.
Probably will get a 17 mm TSE but not this year.

Oh, and I sold a 40D and 17-55 f/2.8 IS to help finance the 5D2.

Already purchased this year:

None. I'm quite content with my current setup.

I'm actually spending more time building up my collection of hiking and camping gear at this point than photography gear.

Finally a man with wisdom. Well the rest of us are sitting out in the freezing cold having spent all our money with our latest gears and no protection from the elements he is sitting in a nice warm tent, warm sleeping bag, goes for hikes in waterproof boots,....
