52 tooth chainring on a compact crank?

SRAM makes a 11-28 for a wide range of gear combinations. I almost got one, but decided to stick with Shimano and a 12-27 for my compact cranked Madone when I changed the cassette to make a climbing "super century" a little easier. My LBS told me Shimano is coming out with a 11-28 later this year (at least according to the rumor mill). That'll be sweet for the flats and climbing :p
