I know you're keen to get some gear and send it up some big climbs but I'd definitely recommend climbing with a qualified instructor/guide for 2-3 days and use their gear. You'll come out of it with knowledge on how to place the right gear correctly, knots you didn't even know existed and when to use them, how to get your ass out of trouble when things turn to shit, setting up anchors, rapping / multi pitch rapping (not the yo yo homie gee kind), general technique etc.

That was my experience with a guide anyway.

But thats just my two cents. If you're gonna go it alone i just suggesting buying a heap of slings as mentioned above. They're cheap and handy.
