Keep it for a second body or keep it as a backup. - Brian Johns
Keep it as a backup - and sell the old backup on Ebay :) - Patty Hankins
I don't have a backup yet so I like the idea of keeping it, but I wonder if I would use it enough to justify not trying to sell it. For what it's worth, I will be looking to replace or complement my Canon XTi with a Canon 40D this Christmas. - Becca
I don't need the backup often. But when my 5D had to go back to Canon for sensor cleaning - having the 20D on hand was great. Most of the time - I just keep the backup camera at home. When I'm on a trip - I always take it with me - just in case. I'd much rather carry it - and not need it than need it and not have it with me - Patty Hankins
Until now I have just passed them on to someone else, but when it's time to replace my 5D, I expect to keep it around as a backup. - Michael Hocter

“Do you carry an extra camera body with another lens attached, or do you switch lenses in the field?”
I guess I prefer to shoot at the extremes. I either want the most zoom I can get or the fisheye effect. Sometimes there isn't enough time to switch and sometimes the environment just won't allow for it. So, I wonder if it's practical to have a setup with each or if just miss some shots. That could always give you a reason to go back later! - Becca
whoa, you got a blackberry?!?!?! I never would have guessed you'd be interested in one of those. - Tom
I agree with you Tom, I don't know who this is - Ace
I have used my last two phone to get sports scores, and for instant messaging. So far the instant messaging on the blackberry is enough of an improvement to make that worthwhile. I can't figure out how to get scores yet though. Maybe install an application which I don't know how to do yet. Another plus is my phone can now be used as a modem. So anywhere I go I can get internet on my laptop. Woot! - Becca
