Need new windshield wipers, which ones to get?
I heard that the stock OEM ones are the best but I was just wondering what you AW people think? Where can I buy the OEM wipers?

Picked up a set of the Valeo Ultimate wiper blades...
...I first saw them on Tire Rack's web site. They look very similar to the European Aero wipers mentioned below, but they're quite a bit cheaper ($29 each with coupon code "volvoxcdeal") which I read about here:

I've got them on my STi, and so far I'm very impressed with their performance (although I have only had them on the car for a few weeks now). The only downside is that the rubber wiper portion is not replaceable, so when the wipers are shot you have to replace the entire blade instead of buying new wiper inserts.
{Edit} Here's the direct link for ordering & more info:
