Take EOS Canon 10 40D now
DISAPPOINTMENTS:
After previously owning a 20D for 3 years it seemed like there should have been some significant improvements (and there has been).
However, the 40D introduced an issue with the viewfinder (glare around the top focus point — Note this is a known issue but Canon doesn’t consider it a problem) and the selected focus point seems to be forgotten after powering down.
Finally, the picture quality (in my opinion) appears to be equal, or in some cases less than the 20D (tends to have significant noise).
IMPROVEMENTS:
The focus seems to be faster/better and the huge LCD is a blessing. ~5% extra in the viewfinder is very nice as well.
CONCLUSION:
I would recommend waiting for the 50D so that Canon will hopefully get some of these things worked out.

Crazy on Hood Lens EW65II Canon
Hey, it makes sense to me. You need some expensive plastic to protect your great cheap plastic lens. You wanted to explore the primes without taking out a second mortgage, right? Besides, every goober who sees your lens hood will be convinced that you are a pro.

Say hi to 15-85mm EF-S UD IS f/3.5-5.6 USM Canon
Good outside lens. So I picked up this lens because I wanted something that would give me more range. Overall this is a decent lens. Only issue I had with this lens is that Canon EF-S 15-85mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM UD is slower being a variable f3.5-5, so because of this the indoor shots didn’t come out as sharp. You will have to use a higher ISO for low light conditions. If you intend to take a lot of pictures indoors or in low light situations, I would probably recommend the 17-55 f2.8. However for outdoor daylight shooting, I do like the flexibility of this lens. It gives you a very wide angle when you need it and gives you enough reach for most situations. If you are casual outdoor photographer I would recommend this lens. This lens is a step up from the kit lens that comes with the T1i. However the price tag is a bit high for what you get.
