For that price I'd get a 20D and a 70-200 2.8IS  .
Going used is the best. IMO no point buying new.

For $2,550 with taxes included, that's a decent deal. You're saving around $300 over buying from a retail outlet such as future shop. There are better deals out there though, and if you're purchasing a few high ticket items like this, you should make your salesman work for your purchase.
So, you're getting a deal as far as being a standard consumer walking into a future shop goes... but you could certainly do better.

i would seriously just buy a 20d. The diffrences from the 30d isn't much. And you will save alot of money, and thats more money for lenses and a bigger memory card.

How close do you want to get to slr at this point though... would you want something the size of a deck of cards, or something that has a decently sized lens and some great features?

TZ1 is good, but the FX01 has a wider angle. 28mm vs. 35mm equivalent.

i'm looking for a non-slr that produces low noise (or as little as possible noise) in night shots, decent size for occasional point and shoot purposes, full manual control and maybe some crappy add-on lens ability.
budget 500-750
suggestions?

s3 is.
probably your best bet, it has iso 50, a decent flash, and it has the added image stabalazion which will help for night shots.
