I'm sure you will find the advanced AF & snappiness very useful in just 4 or 5 months <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

My experience is that my good old E-P1 can't even cope with a four legged 6 months old baby.
Congrats for the baby boy,

Quite a debate going on here :-)
Just to clarify a few things:
1) I mentioned wanting a higher resolution sensor, this was meaning over the 1DII sensor.
2) I am replacing both my 50D and 1DII with the 7D so my only choice for this camera was a crop sensor as most of my shots are focal length limited (maybe not my most popular however it would seem!)
3) I will be adding a FF camera to my arsenal very soon as I do like the advantages it offers, I cant decide whether to settle for a 5D or whether I want to shell out and go for the 5DII. My main reason would be the interface on the camera and the LCD screen - the original 5D was horrible for those but I just don't think they are worth £1000 to me (yes its higher resolution, and does movies, has higher ISO etc. but I wouldn't take advantage of those too much).
Anyway, thanks for the interesting debate guys, its been fun reading. As it stands both the 7D and my new boy came last Wednesday so my only test subject so far has been family shots. However so far I am very impressed with the 7D and I cant wait to try out the advanced AF soon :-)
Cheers
