That's what I used to think. But since I've been shooting with the 10d, I might as well throw all my previous negs out. I have no idea why you are waiting.
Personnaly I'm shooting quite a lot at wide angles, the 1.6 factor is a problem for me, not because of a possible picture quality loss, but because it would mean I have to change my lenses to get wider ones to be able to have the same angle as before. So that's more investement that just changing the body!
What exactly are you shooting that needs such incredibly wide angle
lenses?
Is 24mm an incredibly wide angle lense for you? This is my wider lense and I would need a 15mm to have the equivalent angle.
Even if you still found 24mm as incredibly wide angle, I guess you can't say that about a 35mm. And for a 35mm I would need a 21mm which I don't have (as 24mm is my wider one).
So honestly, I think that even with what seems to me a reasonable wide angle lense (let's say 28mm for example) you need to change your lense (except of course if you already have wider lenses :-).
Are you doing it for money?
No, so I have to pay the lense by myself :-)
Have you looked into combining images, don't laugh, it's very handy if you only need this extreme wide angle sometimes.
Probably, but I must admit it sounds a little bit more difficult to me, it still seems to me far more easier to directly see what will be more or less the result in my viewfinder instead of trying to figure out what are the multiple pictures I have to take to end up with a good combination.
If I go to a digital camera it would be to simplify things not make them more difficult :-)
