d80 or canon rebel Xti

right.. it's been toying around in my head for quite some time now that i can't get the f/22 stop on my canon s3 grumbles..
so here i'm deciding to get one of those said above.
point is that i've read reviews that says canon has sharper clearer photos and nikon has softer stuffs.
for me.. i think sharper images are better.. because if a little fuzziness on the nikons er.. it's just in the namesake maybe..
maybe they are all the same.
my sis is moving from the states to aberdeen on one of the coming months, so i thought i'd get her to buy it from the states. but i'd have to get it soon. b4 jan 18 or 20 as the delivery will take at least 5-1o working days or something.. or i could always pay for express delivery.
then it'd only arrive in the UK when she comes and i go visit her.
here's the clincher to those 2 cameras or rather my thinking.

pros for nikon
it uses SD memory cards.. which i already have 2 X 1gb.
the kit comes with 18-135 lenses.
much better feel in terms of the interface thing.
recommended by a friend who said she regretted getting the rebel. ( not the xti)
nikon sounds more professional than canon even though canon is more widely used. ( to me la)
that's about it i guess.
cons. - si beh kao expensive - 1299USD for the kit. sommore no memory card.
dunno why the canon name rings a nicer tone in my ears.

pros for canon.
clearer images.
cheaper. by about 400-500USD.
that's about it.
cons
uses CF cards.. i dun like CF cards.. they are big and bulky. :p
lens kit comes in 18-55mm. (meaning i can't take the zoomed photo of the half naked blonde neighbour i have that sunbathes during summer.. -_- j/k)
