I agree that 10mp is enough for most purposes, and more than enough for many. The high ISO performance of the 50D gets discussed a lot and initially it seemed that the camera was performing worse than the 40D. However more recent reviews have shown that the high ISO performance is on a par with the 40D, which is impressive given all those extra pixels.
