pjherron,
No advice from me, but I'm interested to hear some responses. I'm about the same boat as you looking for a new set of 700x28 for my commuter. The guys at my LBS recommended the Open Pro w/ ultegra and they've got a pretty good price. But other friends said the Open Pro's aren't quite as tough as I'd like and I should lean towards Alex or Sun Rhino Lites for day-to-day durability. As I don't have much experience in buying new wheels, I'm up in the air and might just let Ebay make the decision for me.
