I look forward to seeing how you get on with Expression Engine, that would certainly be my choice, should I move from MT.

Hey, also check out Textpattern. I have heard nothing but good stuff about it. It even has a hands off template building module for the HTML illiterate.

Don't forget to read Padawan's very thorough MT vs. Expression Engine article. Especially the update over how he metions while EE claims to have multiple blog support, it's not as intuitive as MT.

Really looking forward to hearing which one you end up going with as I was just about to move forward with a huge installation of MT, but not anymore obviously!
