It should have:

        o DOF preview
        o multiple focus points (5 is great, 3 ok)
        o 1/250s synch
        o interchangeable focusing screens
        o built-in flash

I could live without:

        o the F100 build quality
        o the focus sensor joystick as it is on the F100
        o the photosecretary connection
        o the frame rate of the F100
        o multiple exposure (but others may not agree)

In fact, I'd like to see a F801 with an up to date AF system.

I just read that the new EOS300 (to replace to 500n/RebelG) will have
DOF preview... and that camera is at the same level as Nikon's entry
level!

OTOH, if Nikon decides to keep the F90x around, they may want to
introduce a lower-spec F80.
