Haha. Sorry to hear about your RC-1, inkista.
After doing my research, I decided to go with a CyberSync set. I read too many horror stories about the Cactus triggers, and I really can't afford to drop the money on PocketWizards. It seems like CyberSyncs are a nice, reliable compromise. I don't mind being "restricted" to manual flash only. I'm not going to go nuts with my lighting setup, as I am only an amateur photographer not looking to go professional.
I think if I were to do much more, I'd purchase a Canon 580EX II and have two umbrellas and a reflector. But, there's no sense worrying about that now. I can't afford to do it. Maybe sometime in the future.
