When will the canon t1i successor be released?

So i'm an entry level photographer and i'm planing to buy either a nikon d3100 or a canon t1i. I know the nikon was recently released and i'm wondering when the canon t1i successor will come out.

Added (1). Oh i'm sorry i alredy know about the t2i, i was wondering about the next generation. Or maybe the replacement for the t2i.

The canon rebel t2i has been out since august.
go for the nikon d3100 though much better investment.

There's lots of conflicting opinions between Canon and Nikon… For me it's only Canon. Yes the t2i has been out for some time - the upgrade to the t1i. Still the t1i is excellent.

There's a "new" T1i for like 8 months. The T2i. It's better than the D3100 but more expensive!
