I am looking to get a wireless release for the 40D. Any good suggestions on a good wireless release?

Thanks

I got a Phottix Wireless Remote Set C3 for Canon 40D from HKSupplies on Ebay for $19 +ph.

Works well and at that price if it needs t be replaced its not much of an outlay.

Phottix Cleon C8. About $43 shipped, works like a charm IMO. Got mine from Teamspeed.

I got one of these. Works great. Instructions were in Chinese, but it's pretty obvious what everything does without needing the instruction sheet.

There is a link on the upper left side that lets you navigate from the home page. Above is the page that I ordered mine from. I do not see it there at the moment for the 40D. maybe they are out of stock right now. i would call and ask.

I have a Dot Line RF Wireless Remote. I used it shooting fireworks and was well pleased with it. I picked it up a B&H.

Ok so the question is, will the POTN guys benefit from the whole store or just the "POTN Store" section of the entire store?
