Bought this lens in Bangkok after two days deciding between 17-55 and 17-40 4L while drinking good old Singha 
2.8 and IS convinced me, although 17-40 is soooo much better built.
My sample is quite sharp, but after only two days of using the lens I saw dust on front elements.
I think I'll just clean the lens myself and put b+w mrc UV filter as I'm almost 100% sure that dust is coming in where the screws are...
