Does anyone have experience in the area? I am planning a trip away mid next year, I could do with the camera now, but not really for anything important.
Could anyone give me any advice? How much will the price drop in a year? Is it worth holding out for a newer model? Thanks for your help.

Canon recently announced the new Rebel T2i (550D), and will be releasing it in a few months. If you want really good video quality along with image quality then you might want to wait and get the T2i. If not, then maybe wait until the T2i has been out for a little while, and the price on the T1i (500D) might drop a bit.
