What about the new Olympus models? I'm looking at either a Nikon D40X or Olympus E510. Haven't really got the time to go shopping, particularly as my nearest store is likely to be Dixons or another of their cruddy group (PCW, or Currys).

I know the Nikon is supposed to be the best in it's range but I've always had soft spot for Olympus (still got 2 x OM4Ti & loads of lenses)
