I got a 28-135 with my 50D a few years back, was very quickly my favorite lens ... but it too has issues. If you're in a dusty environment the 28-135 sucks dirt inside itself and as it builds up over the years you either have to get it professionally cleaned or plant a garden in it. Weird how my two favorite lens suck dirt, have to wonder if it isnt an omen.

I bought the laminated cheat sheet for the 60d. Hopefully that will help. Also reading the manual with a lot of hands on time. It came today and it's raining expected to continue all day tomorrow. Around the house objects it is

To get the true (35mm equivelet) of Canon lens multiply the focal legenth by 1.6

Example:Your 28mm lens would acutally be 44.8MM
Your 135mm lens will be 216mm

I got the 18-135 with the new camera. I have a 28- 105 ef already. I have to learn the camera at this point. I have the T1i now the 60d. I want the 60d to become the primary so practice it is.

The 18-200 is not a bad lens, but Canon can definitely do better, and I hope they do soon. I ended up buying a 18-250 mm Sigma for about the same price (based on test results) and am very happy with it. I have a 50D and a 7D. I'm sure you will like the 60D.
