lol. d40 is v cool, and i much prefer the feel of nikons to the canons, just personal preference i guess.
Seems to be a very popular camera everywhere you look, i haven't got a bad thing to say about it so far.
yeah, the AF-S lens are slightly more expensive, but unless you're planning to buy s**t loads of em, i doubt you'll notice really.
Also manual focusing can be fun - when you a shot right, you get more of a sense of acheivement
the lens kit is awesome. takes great pics straight from the box. Just buy a quick 2gb card, UV and polorising filter and you'll be busy for a long time....
you'll always get shutter lag with a compact. i wouldn't want to take a DSLR on a night out with me. My K850i goes up to iso400, which takes surprisingly good pics
