D90 or D5000???

Abit of update on my current status... since i din update blog for quite some time, u can prolly guess that i've finished my exams...

Well, 2/3 of my results are outtt!! n passed that.. now left the final 1/3 nx week.. can grad onot depends on that...

Now back to my dilemma...

Well, the dilemma starts with my sony A200 rosak abit... so I am using that excuse to sell it and get a new camera.. n since i've finished exams, this is when I need my camera most! jalan jalan n when parents come etc...

I memang from last time eye this liao: nikon dee nai tee

But dengar kata its successor coming out soon... july? august? nobody knows..except for those nikon fella... But i need camera now la.. so wait wait not a choice la kot...n I'm so free.. can slowly get used to my new camera first..hehe

But if i get d90 now... after 1 month come out d90s or wadever name I mah amdui... Imagine if i just bought iphone3gs then iphone4 come out... so hmm...Another choice is d90's brother:

Dee Fai thousand
which is very very similar to dee nai tee... but still its not d90... One thing i like about it is the swivel lcd... means I can camwhore as much as I want.. n easier for high angle pics also.. as u noe, i am quite short... Then I have to ask myself:
1) Do i want the inbuild AF motor? erm.. dont have also nvm la.. (check)

2) Do i wana use CLS (creative lighting system) basically wireless flash... erm..now cant afford flash yet... abaikan (check)

3) Do i want a more solid n bigger body with more accessible buttons and controls? herm... i would like the index finger turn turn thing.. but can lupakan la.. (check)

4) Do I want a 3 inch LCD with 920000 pixels resolution? YESSS I WANTTT... (no check)...

How la.. I want the flip LCD.. but i also want the high reso lcd..argh.. n d5k is 100 pds cheaper..
But d90 memang well known as a superb camera laa... but if new d90s come out d90 mah pupus.. hard to find sparepart ka? n if i buy now later d90s come out with the flip lcd... mah sedehh... better i get d5k n sacrifice the lcd... can I??

pls kasi some advice...

Not sure why you don't want the AF motor built into the camera. Without that you will need to get Nikon AF lenses which cost a fortune. 10 MP requirement and 3 " lCD screen i don;t think is essential lor. Its not like you are going to print or showcase your pictures on huge piece of paper or screen (guessing). flip screen, i think is a reasonable technology ar...quite useful to me. hehe just my 2cents

hehe..its not that i dont want.. but i can live without for now.. 10mp? both same 12.1mp ar. but the lcd..not about showcase la.. just to preview the picture after shooting.. wud be nice to have a high reso screen so can tell whether need to retake onot.but ppl say the d5k lcd quite decent also la although 230k pixels..i noe..i like the flip screen too... grr...
