My trusty D40 has taken 10,000 piccies and I'm looking to get something with more hard buttons. I want to stay in Nikon DX mode because of my glass so can someone please tell me why I would choose a D300S over a D90?

I know the 300 has dual card slots but what else does it do to warrant me buying one.

I read that the D90 is probably going to be replaced by a D7000 soon but the D400 is still 18 months away and will probably only improve on the 300 with more megapixels and 1080HD video (300 does 720). Both of those features are blah blah to me anyway.

So....why a D300S over a D90?

Thanks.
