Canon PowerShot A40 or Nikon Coolpix 2000?

[zuff]

Hello all! Newbie here

I'm buying my first Digital Camera, I've been doing some research. Now, I first thought I will buy Canon PowerShot A40 but then some people said "Wait for Nikon Coolpix 2000".

So, any suggestions, which one should I go?

Or should it asked like this: Does Nikon lack some features which Canon has, and vice versa?
