Epic, from my experience the specifications do not tell you everything. Factors such as overall image quality, sharpness, noise, color accuracy, dynamic range, fidelity, digital grain, image consistency, etc. have always been far better as you move up Canon's product line. I feel confident to say that the 50D even if spec'd less, would still provide a higher level of overall image quality and out perform the 550D any day.
As you mentioned earlier in your first post, a lot of today's camera marketing is just crap features. Any professional will use a professional camera for photography. If they need a professional video, they get a professional video recorder. The nice thing that Canon did with the 5D Mark II, they captured two markets in one solid device. It's great from people with a mid-level budget, but most of all I saw this move benefit wedding photographers.
The lines have been blurred. I think it would be awesome if Canon/Nikon got into the medium format war. I would not be surprised if that happened in the future.
