I went with the OCSC myself which I use to fire a 550EX, which in turn fires a 420EX wirelessly, giving me a two flash setup for small product shots etc. My only problem has been that the cord is too short and I'll end up bouncing some gear off the floor eventually. I don't know if there is an extension available that retains full functionality. I'll have to look into sometime.
