Just had a call with my local shop, and they told me that the 40D will be announced in July....
Happy Summer !

Just like I said today in an earlier post...Canon can announce the 40D now that I have purchased a 30D this AM ...if true it is still OK since delivery will be awhile and the price will not doubt start strog...Tom Rootness...in Two Harbors, Minnesota
Kind of hoping it'll be July or August as the glut of European rebates end on June 31st (except the 400D, which is extended until the end of August now)
There was a rumor thread some time ago about a camera shop owner leaking a June announcement for the 40D. This shop owner is more reliable than the last one because of what again?
I wish I had a dollar for every time I've read about somebody's camera shop owner that had the inside scoop on the next Canon camera !
Of course this guy is different. No doubt that he's privy to information that nobody else has. After all, he's a camera shop owner.
But, keep guessing long enough and keep posting these ridiculous rumors and sooner or later somebody will get it right. And when they do finally guess right after two years of rumors, there are those that will see it as proof positive that rumors are based in fact.
Don't we have anything better to talk about ?
Good luck.
I hope you're source is right. If it is announced in July, then I'll have a good chance of having one in time for most of the high school football season. If not, my trusty 20D will continue to be my constant companion
