Actually, I might be lying, you may lose AF but anyone that can use a DSLR should be able to focus!!

IMO:
Pro Sony:
Use your existing Sony Lenses
Higher Megapixel (doesnt necessarily mean better pictures though).
Keep your existing Memory cards (450D uses SD)
Lenses dont need image stabalisation as its build into the body meaning cheaper lenses.
Moveable live view screen
Cheaper.
Lighter.
Faster AF in Live View

Pro Canon:
Higher ISO range
More lenses available
More lenses available on Ebay
USM lenses
Can connext to computer to shoot pictures (Ithink it can anyway).
Higher FPS rate (2.5 on Sony 3.5 on Canon).

If you arent too worried about cost then go for the 450D, overall it is the better camera but dont under estimate the Sony.

I am using a Sony A300 (a A350 with 10MP instead of 14MP) and love it. One really useful feature is it focuses automatically when you put your eye upto the viewfinder (not when in live view) so it is already focused before you press the button. this is a geature that my friend with with his new 40D likes.

Whilst i agree with a varied market. I think like mosst industries there are leaders and followers.

Surely you would want to get the leading camera for your money. Nikon and Canon are the leaders - even Minolta have fallen back.

I know the arguement will be about funds possibly at these mid-ranged placed camera.

Whenever i am asked about recommedations on a camera, i always point in the direction of Canon / Nikon.

Just my opinion though.

Within reason funds aren't a major issue, i am not going to spend thousands but a couple of hundred extra would be ok the reason I chose these cameras is because of the reviews I have read & watched and because it seemed the natural progression after my a200. I also considered the a700

40D is very good but i do prefer the Nikon equivalent D300 (shame its over priced)

but the D60 is not as good as the Canon 450D.

Ooh this confusing
