I agree with Hitchw and greghal, forward contracts allow you much more flexibility, as always do some research on brokers to use, ive spoken to a few and service and price does vary!

sensible option Tom, as its going up its best to take advantage of this tbut give yourself a chance of it getting to 2.00!
As Tim01 said you should probably call a couple of brokers as most people on here will agree that the prices do vary!
