If $1,600 is the right price the question becomes "is it more camera than the
10D"? And if the rumors are true that the 10D replacement will have 8 Mpix at
a slightly higher price then the Canon looks even better.

The Minolta will likely appeal mainly to folks with a hefty investment in
Minolta lenses for their 35 mm systems. It's unlikely many Nikon or Canon
users would switch systems to buy into this. Who knows what the newbies will
be buying, but it sure looks like Canon and Nikon have more to offer at this
point.

First off,8mp does not always mean better than 6mp! I have tried most of the
new 8mp cameras,and none are making me sorry I have Nikon D70s and a Canon
10D! As for the "anti-shake",have you priced the stabilised Canon lenses?
There can be as much as the cost of the Minolta in extra cost,for 1 lens!If
Minolta can use "as" in all of its lenses,$1600 would be a bargain.I have a
pretty large collection of Minolta AF lenses.I,for one,will jump on it!I
have never liked the Rebel,and even a 8mp Rebel for $800,would not make me
take out my check book!

Seems like they should go for at least 10MP to stay competive with the
older, sub-$1000 DSLRs. The 10MP SD9 (13MP recorded, using less
interpolation than a Bayer) is going up in price, but its still less
than half the price of the $1600 Minolta.

The 10MP SD9....

You misspelled "3.4MP."
