I tend to agree, but I'm waiting for prices and availability to stabilize (and potentially the 5D MKIII ):D
Stabilize? It's been a rock solid $2400 for a long time now ($2000 refurbed from Canon directly) The 7D is lower than it's ever been too - I got a 7D body new for $1390, and another $250-300 off when I sell the printer and gift card that it came with cause it was a rebate package.
No, that wasn't sarcasm - it has gone up recently it seems to 2500-2700. I've checked in the past and found it for $2400 most of the time... they're even up to 2600 on Ebay now too, yikes! I got mine for $2430 in Feb. '09 with a %10 coupon from Ebay
I haven't gotten another coupon since they must have not liked paying $270 for my camera
Funny, the Apple store has the lowest price at the moment:
You get $5 for signing up, then, up to $30 back per transaction. With the %3 rebate from Adorma you'll get $30 back and after the 90 day period you can request a $35 check or have it wired to Paypal. The Apple store is a trustworthy place though if $2500 is a reasonable price for you... unless there's tax. lol.
Even for the $300 I'd still pay that premium to use the MKII with the F/4 over the F2.8 with the 40D ANY day. It'd rock your world completely. I upgraded from a Pentax K10-D (which is Pentaxs' 40D equivalent from the same year) and it blows it out of the water without leaving any evidence behind

If you really wanna buy it from Adorma though, you can get a $35 crumb back through here no matter when you buy it:
