Crop Sensor vs. Full Frame

I'm looking to upgrade my camera body and tossing up between a Canon 7D or a Canon 5D MkII.

I originally thought I should go with the 5D MkII as it has a full frame sensor which you would think produces better image quality, but after speaking to a few people I'm now considering the 7D with a crop sensor as it's quicker and cheaper.

I suppose the final decision will come down to what I shoot more of, but at the same time I don't want to buy something that is going to be limiting later on anyway.

Can anyone offer advice?
