Canon Rebel XTi or XT?

I'm getting ready to buy a Canon Rebel and Canon 85 mm/1.8 lens. I got a little overwhelmed when listening to friends talk of "image stabilization" in the Rebel XT that's not available in the XTi. I know the lens I'm going to get is not an IS lens. Is that going to matter that much? Should I buy an XT (with image stabilization in the camera itself & 8 megapixels) or an XTi? The XTi has 10 megapixels but no image stabilization in the camera-- and I know the lens I want is not an IS lens.

Tracy,
Canon DSLR Stablization is in the lens and not the body for Canon XTI and XIS. I would say for the Canon 85 MM/1.8 lens stablization would be an asset but not totally necessary. A Lens like 18-200mm or 70-300mm would be more important to have stablization lenses.
Hope this helps,
Paulie
