Interesting:

The 10D does not have an external AF assist lamp, it uses a stroboscopic burst from the built in flash. Effective range: approx. 4.0m/13.1ft. at center, approx. 3.5m/11.5ft off-center. When used with any of the EX series flashes the EOS 10D will make use of the external flash's more powerful AF assist lamp.

"Unfortunately my pre-production EOS 10D developed problems so we won't be
able to post any sample images until we receive a replacement camera."

Another interesting quote from the same review which might be of help to those who have problems with the low-light focusing in the D60:

"A local pro-shooter friend of mine has been using the Canon ST-E2 on his D60 to improve the low-light auto focus capability and he swears by it. The ST-E2 was designed as a wireless trigger for the 550EX flash but works great on its own as a very powerful, accurate and long-range focus-assist device."

I have one myself and it certainly works as well as was described in this review.
