Coming up on one year
The 2000D will be a year old come June, will Canon be releasing a new one?
Northlight points out the Aussie PMA being in June, so perhaps a May announcement?
2000D? I havent heard anything about it. I think Canon may just keep the 1000D around through to Christmas. A $399-$499 dslr perhaps?
Nikon has discontinued the D40, so there's a hole in the really cheap SLR segment from the big 2. I'll assume that the D60 will be the new cheapy when Nikon makes their announcements on the 14th of April.
I haven't seen any imminent discontinuation of the XSi or XS yet. I'll have to keep an eye on price sheets.
I admit I laughed at Sony for having 3 entry level cameras, but here we are with 3 Rebels. I think at their current price points, they'll sell a lot of each of them.

without adding video…
what else could they possibly do that doesn’t simply turn the camera into a 450D?
A 1000D with their new chip to add face detection?
I’m betting on the 1000D remaining another year. IMO would be much smarter to upgrade the current kit lens.
If that’s not a 1 april joke: yes: they can improve 1000D: they can give him better AF (for example from 400D) ;) Even if they don’t put video option and 15mp sensor it would sell great!
Hey, take a look at this: Canon sent a ‘take down’ notice to a blogger who speculated (apparently correctly) about a larger-sensored compact from the company:

am I the only one who honestly prefers the 7 point AF system to the 9 point?
Errr are you serious or is this an April fool’s joke?
