Rather a disappointment in the DSLR rat race: the new EOS30D http://www.dpreview.com/news/0602/06022114canoneos30d.asp I'll keep my eyes on the 5D. Pitty that my wallet doens't follow :-) Maybe they're keeping the best for Photokina this September. (The worst part of the expected name confusion will be the Ebay rip-offs with old D30 iso 30D's :-)
I don't know--the 100k shutter looks like a solid improvement to me. It's clearly just an incremental update to the 20D, but it's slightly less expensive, slightly more reliable, and has a few extra features (spot meter, 1/3 stop ISOs). I've been toying with the idea of finally replacing my D60, and the 20D and 5D's short shutter lives have been worrying me. The 30D looks almost perfect for its price point, though.
