canon 50D

Canon and Nikon seem to have (for the moment) let the dust settle on the megapixel wars, and instead now are concentrating on live-view and video capabilities. Hopefully someday soon camera makers will abandon all the marketing hype and focus on what REALLY matters in a camera: sensor size. I would rather have a 6MP camera with a full-frame sensor than a 20MP camera with an APS-C sized sensor. If they put their efforts toward producing a cost-effective full-frame sensor DSLR, it would do more toward promoting photography than anything else they've done so far.

Is Canon working on video capabilities as well?

As for full frame, I am planning one getting one sooner than later.
The D3x rumors are buggin the shit out of me.

when i was doing some reading they had always mentioned that d60 was an upgrade of the d40 and the d80 was an upgrade of the d70

yes you are correct here. And now the D90 is an upgrade to the D80 I wonder what they will do next with the mid-level entry DSLRs since a D100 already exists. Maybe a new line name or something of that sort.
