Moreover, under $1000 for a 105-equipped bike is a great deal in today's market (due to the dollar's decline, bike specs have dropped slightly for the $$$ for 2008 bikes).
The only thing you may consider upgrading immediately are the wheels, especially as a bigger guy, but even then, I'd wait until they start breaking spokes before throwing cash at the problem. I had Alex wheels on a Specialized before I got my Fuji, and they lasted me four years before I had any problems, even with a riding weight between 190 and 200 lbs.
