Default Shield vs XDs

My dealer just received a Springfield XDs that I ordered and upon examining it I was very impressed. Holding it side by side with my Shield the things are virtually the same size. The XDs feels good in hand as does my Shield and the trigger has a similar reset. I opted for the stainless slide so I won't be sending this one to Robar. Makes me wonder, will a 45 Shield be coming next? If Springfield can fit the 45acp into such a small envelope I'm sure S&W can to. I have an M&P45c which is a truly excellent pistol but would love to see the Shield in this calibre. Competition drives the market and is a good thing.
