OT: Canon XS DSLR with non- IS lens

Hello all,
I'm looking to replace my Canon Rebel 2000 film camera with a Canon XS (1000D) DSLR. I was hoping to replace the body only, as I have Canon EF 28-80 and EF 80-200 lenses already. The Canon XS typically comes with a 18-55mm IS (image stabilized) lens.
I've emailed a camera shop and they said the non-IS lenses will be okay but I might want to upgrade later to an IS telephoto lens. Also, my 28-80 will give up some wide-angle FOV due to the in-camera cropping of the image sensor in the DSLR, since it's smaller than a 35mm film frame. Since I rarely do wide angle shots, I'm okay with this trade-off.
So, anybody out there make the switch from film to DSLR and is using non-IS lenses?
On another note, does anyone use an aftermarket battery-pack/vertical grip with their DSLR, and what brand? Experiences?
Thanks all,
JMJ
