The successor to the XTI will be released sometime in the next few months. Canon has a roughly 18 month cycle on them. I don't see it coming out any later than March. That said I don't see there being any huge improvements to the core functionality of the camera. They will not increase the resolution until the following version, 500d or whatever it will be called. The current generation already has new generation tech like automatic dust cleaning, etc. I wonder what there is left to improve? Perhaps battery life, bigger screen, easier to use and hold. Thumb wheel would be great but doubt it. They won't put anything into it that is better then the 40d which came out a few months ago. Not too much of a reason to hold off, but if you can wait, then at least if the new features aren't that impressive then you can save some money buying the older, cheaper XTI. Good luck!
The Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever-so-slightly thinner than the iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals (and competitors, for that matter) would confess is the market leader today.

You can add another 1 to that list of 30 Mil when I get my XTi next year.
With the XTi being so popular I wonder how long before we see the replacement to it, its over a year old now.
I have a A95 now and just got my wife a SD870 for xmas. That XTi will just round out our Canon family.
