Where do you expect 1st associate salalries/bonuses to be in 2011

I'll be done with my MBA in 2011. In looking at various sources, it sounds like the current salaries are down about 50% from what they were in 2007...and of course bonuses are down as well. Just curious if anyone can comment on what the trend has been in associate salaries in the last yr or so and if the experts here who have a pulse on this topic can chime in on where you think they will be next yr.
