You know what is the funny thing, which could be attributed to the reasons nthfinity wrote; Instead of people lining up to buy the new 30D, most of the people on the photography community are looking for deals on the 20D

Better yet if you are looking for something in that class, I heard the D200 is REALLY REALLY good.
