That's the other unknown. Thankfully the D70 and 300D will put
price pressure on them and 20D will also influence as it has more
bang/$.

So are you thinking it will be priced closer to the D70, or to the 20D?
Minolta has always historically given to highest features/$ ratio.

Good point. I would think it will be more than the D70
initially. There is pent up demand which will hold a high price
up for a while ... I'm just not salivating to get one on the
first day. Wait a couple months after release to sale seems the
best course.

Cheers,
Alan
