Canon EOS 550D

To all of you who have a unit of Canon EOS 550D, please kindly leave your camera to me and i will take good care of it for a day. LOL~ Just kidding. It's a nice camera. I am planning to buy this camera soon along with the 18-135 mm lens. Is that lens suitable for the camera? Well, I saw some people commented that it is better to use a 18-55 mm lens to capture nearer objects and 55-200 mm to capture further objects. So, I am wondering which one would be better combination? Leave me some opinions/comments in my cbox, so that i could make comparison with other cameras. Here are some pictures of the 'camera'. Enjoy!
