YN 468 is a good deal if you need TTL. If not, YN 460ii is great bang for buck manual flash. YN 560 is a bit more of an upgrade for full manual flash but great bargain as well.
Been shooting with 460ii's and a 560 for years, no issues.

To those who say save up for the 430EXii, why not a NISSIN Di866ii? Its a similar price as the 430EXii (a tad cheaper actually) has all the features of the 430EXii but its more powerful than a 580EXii.. I have heard that the Di866ii has one of the highest Guide numbers from all the consumer flashes.

Got a DI866ii here. It's really great. Very powerful, never even a hint of a hiccup. Having all the power is great, recycles super-fast at lower power settings and power to spare for high speed sync.

I'd take it over the Canon even if they were priced the same.
