LOL. People will hardly see the T1i hiding behind that enormous 85L. I'd really like one of those, but cannot justify the cost right now. Actually, I've been eyeing(sp?) the new Zeiss 135mm for around the same price.
$700 is a deal for yours!

It was an impulsive buy. Got it for cheap 700$

But, you can do things with it unlike virtually anything else. It would be even more amazing on a full frame body with that shallow DOF.

Also are we talking about the 16-35L I or II to drop?

The II, the latest version, which is actually getting a bit old now. The original was long discontinued, wasn't it? I'm talking new prices here, of course.

Because I"m already tempted enough to buy it. I saw a 16-35L II on POTN that was going at 1k.

At Christmas, IIRC, the 16-35L II was going new for around $1300. When Canon introduces the 14-24L, my guess is that sales will plummet on the 16-35L II and prices may drop. Maybe around $1100, who knows?
And a flood of used 16-35L's may come out, too, as people flock to the 14-24L. I might sell ours, too.
My 16-35mm ƒ/2.8L II is one of my favorite lenses, though, and I imagine you'd be happy with one if you're disinclined to wait.
The 10-22mm will actually take you to 16mm wide angle, though. It makes a big difference. You might prefer to do that for the time being to gain that true ultra wide angle versatility until you buy a FF body. You are correct, though, that the 10-22mm will NOT work on a FF body.
We need more discretionary dollars, don't we?
