I am considering swapping my Rebel T3 body out with another Canon so that I'll be able to load ML. I really need Large AEB and HDR video to match the still. I have been watching the 1100D development for a long time but I need this now for work just to save days of post processing.  For right now I am looking for the cheapest body swap comparable to the T3 that will load ML. I'll get a better camera later :).  So the question is what is the best cost effective body to swap with? Does anyone know of a reputable trade-in service for canon bodies? Mine is mint condition.

Thank you all for you time.

The T2i/550D is the cheapest, but the T3i/600D has some major advantages such as the crop video mode, and the articulated screen.
The T2i has better audio controls.

Both are great value for money.

The 550D has crop video mode too.

600D 3x zoom mode is not the same as 550D crop mode, it's better...

I took the plunge. T3i will be here tomorrow night :). I'm trading in my T3 body towards it. I can't wait to play with ML. Thank you for your responses.
