We present a measurement of the t-tbar cross-section in the 
dilepton channel, using 126 pb-1 of data collected between
March 2002 - May 2003.  The analysis includes the upgrade
endplug detectors and plug silicon tracking for the first time
in a top physics measurement.

We find 10 candidates in the data; the measured value of the
cross-section is:

  sigma_ttbar = (7.6 +/- 3.4[stat] +/- 1.5[syst]) pb,

to be compared with the NLO SM prediction at Sqrt(s)=1.96 TeV 
of (6.7 +/- 0.5) pb.

This result was reported at the Lepton-Photon conference, 2003.
