If you are going to spring for the 2 550EX flashes, you might want to
consider the ST-E2 wireless remote control, for the commercial work of
smaller scale where the 550EXs are strong enough, I have found the ST-E2
allows you the ability to move around with the camera/ST-E2 without worrying
about tripping over sync cables attaching the flashes and the camera
together.
As with some others have said, I have not found the need for PB-E2, I quite
often shoot airshow and car racing with both the A2E I had before and the
EOS-3 now, I find both camera are fast enough and have not felt the need to
justify the cost/bulk/weight of the PB-E2, and maybe contrary to others, I
actually prefer holding onto the side grip on the body while shooting
vertical compositions, I find it much more secure and comfortable then only
loosely holding the PB-E2 in a vertical composition.

Ken
