In case any of you are shopping for a DSLR, Canon just started a new rebate program, applicable to the DRebel and lower models (not on the higher pro models).
If you buy the Rebel, and any other 2 canon lenses--you get $300 off the camera!! With the street price right now around $800 (with basic lens)--that's a steal. The rebate form is kind of confusing, but it appears that you also get rebates on each lens too.
I was wavering between the DRebel and the Nikon D70, but I think this new rebate just made my decision for me. You can't find the D70 below $1199. So after the new Canon rebate, the DRebel is less than half the price.
Check out the details here:

CAUTION: Be sure to buy from a legit authorized Canon dealer, or the rebate is invalid. Some of the cheapest on-line places are not authorized!!
