The lens specific adjustment for front/back focus should make for a lot less send-ins to the service centers. Although for some here, the maximum "library" of "only" 20 lenses might not be enough.

I think I must be the only person who is a tad disappointed that they have only increased the 'III' to 10 meg.
Not the only one, plenty of people were clamoring for 12MP FF, but I'm happy

For me the reason I go to my 5D more than my 1DIIN is the image quality which I can't imagine will be a lot better than the 1DIIN
Well, the pixels are smaller, but the actual photodiode size is the same, and they claim to have increased fill factor, so with the new processing, I expect some amount of improvement.

Also it seems although the hole looks the same the batteries won't be backwards compatible, so that means for existing owners they will need two types of battery and two separate chargers.
Had to happen sometime, and I'm glad they did, although for now I'll be one of those with multiple large format chargers and batteries; actually 3 with the 1DsII, 1DIII and 5D.

Finally we'll get Phil from DPR to stop complaining about his pet peeve, as they've allowed the camera to keep writing if the memory door is opened.
Yes, but Phil was mad that he didn't get advance notice of the 1Diii
