Canon Dedicated Flashes

As I'm taking photojournalism this quarter, and as my many experiences shooting indoors and in other low-light situations have persuaded me, I'm going to purchase a flash. Because I shoot with Canon and I have the 5D, my search for a flash hasn't been a confusing one. Everywhere I turn, people suggest the 580EX with TTL. A lot of people have also suggested that I buy a cheep Vivitar. While I appreciate the logic behind getting a cheep flash now, and saving for the higher-end dedicated flash in the mean-time, I've been saving for a while and I'd like to make this purchase really last. So I've been checking out the 580. Here's a review I read comparing the newer 580EX with it's predecessor, the 550EX.
