Hi,
as owner of D5100 i think it is great camera, i also built a Nikon D5100 site/blog (Nikon D5100) which covers tutorials and comparisons to other cameras, including Nikon D5100 VS Nikon D7000 page (i am adding posts on weekly basis).
basically - i think that the D5100 gives you great sensor (same as the D7000) and features for its price, and unless you really need all D7000 features, i'll say, save you'r money , and go with the D5100.
hope i helped.
Thom, I like your work on the website. My only DSLR is a D7000 w/ a Tamron 28-75 f/2.8 lens. I had a D5000 and I love the IQ and the ergonomics. I hated the 2.7 screen, so I would probably like the new 3" screen of the D5100. One of the reasons I moved to the D7000 is the focus motor but I still much prefer lenses with built in motors. I still love my dedicated controls on the D7000, a must for me.
