The IS is a big step in that range, and optically both
are an improvement. It isn't a huge step though.
I certainly wouldn't buy either of those tele zooms
in your situation, but the 28-135IS would be a good
choice.

28-135IS and 50/1.8 (about $600 together) OR
Sigma 70-200/2.8 HSM (about $750).
Pick one choice now and the other when you get more cash.
