edit: Users can now select between three focus modes: One-Shot AF, AI SERVO and AI Focus.

Hmmm, black or silver, 8MP, 3fps up to 14 frames smaller lighter etc...

Perhaps I didn't need to fork out for my 20D?

is there any way to see a side by side comparison of 300D, XT, and 20D? (in table format, not long paragraphs)
Main features vs. cost?

Heheh,., I've allways been Super ;)

Users can now select between three focus modes: One-Shot AF, AI SERVO and AI Focus. Writing to memory card is 3.5 times faster and the interface is upgraded to USB 2.0 Hi-Speed for fast image downloads. Mirror lock-up and 2nd curtain flash have also been added

And there saying the CMOS is IMPROVED over the 20D!!!

High-end exposure control: The EOS Rebel XT Digital retains the accurate 35 zone TTL metering of the EOS Rebel. The three metering modes (evaluative, partial, and centre weighted average) are now manually selectable and both exposure compensation and exposure bracketing are available in 1/2 stop increments as well as the 1/3 stop increments of the Canon EOS Rebel. The Canon EOS Digital Rebel XT Digital retains the popular Programmed Image Control modes of the Canon Rebel, such as Night Portrait, Sports, Close-up, Landscape, Portrait and Flash OFF.

No need for a Hack on this Rebel,. ;)

May I suggest to all DRebel owners that you install the firmware hack, you'll attain the little extras like mirror-lockup, one-shot mode, etc etc., and spend your money on some nice glass!!:D Interesting announcement but it doesn't seem so earth-shattering to me. But then again, I haven't had a chance to play with this thing so who knows.........all I know is that I will continue to be content with my hacked DRebel and my 135f2 lens...........

As Homer would say Woohoo, the "no prize" ???????????????:D and I get a sticky cooool.

Glad to be of service. it looks almost good enough to think about upgrading from the 300D/RebelD, depending on the price.

Note also that there is apparently a new 60 mm f/2.8 EF-S Macro lens. Very interesting, and something I'd not have expected.

This might knock 10D's down a notch as well. This baby's got FEC and a black (or silver) body. Very nice.
