Price I would think will be below $1K with some sort of lens (18-55mm kit?)

Well I read in the official press release-at least I think it was official because I clicked on it--that the price is going to be lower than the 350D when it came out. So, the body will be around $799 US. If you put that into perspective Canon is marketing the camera just right. Think about it. Why would one want to go with the Nikon D50 now? The A100 from Sony is always placed a little higher in the price range, even though it is a few hundred more. The same goes with the D80.

Canon has a good camera here, but I dream of a camera like this that has 4-5fps. That would be good. I highly doubt we will see one for a while though, because until the pro DSLR do not go up in fps, we won't see an upping on the lower division cameras.
