According to dPreview.com, it's introduced at the same price the
Digital
Rebel was. $899 body, $999 kit.

"Uh-oh" say the other manufacturers. Uh-oh indeed.

I suspect at this price it will have the same "plastic cheeseball"
construction as the Rebel-D?

No more plastic than any of the other sub $1,000 dSLRs.

The D70 might feel more solid... but it isn't.

The Pentax *ist D and *ist DS have more metal than either.
