Maybe Gordon Brown has quite a lot to do with the sterling price-hike.

My version of this chart is for quad-core CPUs - rather easier to appraise in terms of performance than cameras, where raw numbers and claims of capability are swept away in a sea of subjectivity (though Jon H showed me some low-light pictus he took with a Nikon in Vegas last week... mind boggling!)

(b) The entry-level 1000D has vastly superior specs to higher priced DSLRs from a few years ago. Moore's Law is still very much in effect. The crash in the value of the pound over the last year (30%) needs to be factored in here as well.
