I just picked up the Canon EOS Rebel XSi Black 12.20 MP Digital SLR Camera w/EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS Lens from Newegg for $799.99. I linked into Newegg from the FW site so I’ll be getting 1% back.

Newegg also has the XSi with the silver body in stock for the same price.
I had a difficult time deciding between the 40D and the XSi. For me, it ultimately came down to the weight and feel of the cameras. The 40D is an awesome camera, but it’s much heavier, physically larger, more expensive and has features I’ll never use. I also like that Live View works with the mirror down on the XSi (albeit slow). I went to the local camera superstore twice today to hold the two cameras. I decided the perfect setup would be the XSi with the lens that ships with the 40D. So I ended up picking up the Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM Standard Zoom Lens that ships with the 40D body. Newegg has the lens for a respectable $419. I thought about picking up the XSi body, but the 18-55mm lens only added around $50.
