I have to say I do kind of agree, it's better to just keep your head buried in the sand until you're utterly convinced the equipment you're currently using is holding you back creatively.... it's very easy and tempting to get pulled into all the hype around new technology and better specs and of course a lot of it is driven by market competition.... however... I do have this to say - bout bloody time Canon incorporated the ability to wirelessly control flash units into the camera body.... I felt severely cheated when I had to shell out over £150 for Canon's ST-E2 control unit just to be able to take advantage of E-TTL metering from an off-camera flash... this technology has been incorportated into Nikon cameras for the past couple of generations so I'm happy Canon have finally levelled the playing field on that matter...
