...and better ergonomics with the second wheel on the backside of the body. 40D is a better camera body IMHO, but I'm not sure of the convenience of the upgrade.
I would suggest to wait a couple of months. Rumors says that EOS 60D could be released on July/August.
Even if you are not interested in the eventual 60D, the price of 50D will drop a bit, and the 50D is a major upgrade from 450D, thanks to the focus microadjustement utility (that could be very useful in the case of front/backfocusing lenses), better LCD, improved software, improved AF, etc.
I'm not sure how it perform in the noise department, I've never used it.
