Quote from the Australian pres release -
"The Canon EOS 40D will be available in Body Only (RRP $1,999.00) and  
as a kit with EF-S 17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM Lens (RRP $2,799.00)"
Now despite the fact that the Oz dollar dropped like a stone in  
response to the recent silliness on the US stock market (no, please  
don't explain - it's just plain stoopid stuff) that prices it at AU 
$800 which means that either the US numbers quoted are wrong, the  
local numbers are wrong or the local branch office of Canon are evil  
beyond redemption. Hmmmm......
