Canon has launched the follow-up to its hugely popular digital SLR camera, the EOS 350D, bumping the new model's image sensor up to ten megapixels and adding a dust-busting technology to its internal workings.
The EOS 400D also sports a bigger LCD viewfinder than in predecessor: it's 2.5in in size and has a 160° viewing angle. The auto-focus has been improved, and the 400D will take twice as many shots in burst mode as the 350D could: ten RAW-format frames to five.

Wonder what the cost will be, and IF it provides enough competition versus the 350D to force the 350D's price down...

I did, but the quoted price IS just an estimate at £650 sterling or $800US (body only). That means nothing for Irish stockists.

What does that mean? Is it something Dunphy would use?

Whatever the cost turns out to be over here, you can be sure ther'll be a shed load of 350d's on ebay and in buy and sell at knockdown prices!
