Sure I saw someone show somewhere earlier that this is actually a photoshopped 20D advert, think this was based on the contour of the viewfinder 'hump'

DPP has had noise reduction since version 2.x. With 2.x it was hidden under Preferences, and it had Off, Mild and Strong settings for both Chroma noise and luminance noise. NR was either active in some way, or not. With the current 3.x version of DPP you can apply NR on a per-image basis.

but there is a mention of clogging your camera as fast as 1/8000th of a second (at least if you use babelfish to translate that is, haha).
i wouldn't read the weathseal not being there one way or the other. either trust the photos or wait.
Don't know what clogging is (at least not in this context). The 1/8000 is the fastest shutter speed (velocidade de obturacion). According to the article, anyway, just in case there was any doubt.

... has anyone got any other recommended reading on the subject of 12bit vs 14bit RAW, particularly as it may directly related to Canon's RAW images/data?
This technical article on Canon RAW has some useful information.
In days gone bye... (or still around if you have the older cameras)... Canon software, such as EOSViewer Utility, you could create a JPEG from the RAW data, so that it would come out EXACTLY like it would have been processed in the camera. All you had to do was choose the parameters so that they were exactly like they would have been set in the camera. Basically, the RAW application can and would do exactly the same processing as could be done in the camera. I am surprised that Canon doesn't make other software, such as DPP, that could do the same thing for a new camera....

I think you can do this in ImageBrowser>File>Raw Image Processing. I don't know if they changed this with the latest update but you could do it in previous versions. Have you tried that?

Can't any version of DPP do this also? Load the RAW image > WB "Shot Settings" (default) and then jump to "Convert and Save" > *.JPG
As far as I know, it loads it in DPP pretty much as a JPG would be shot. Picture Style also defaults to Standard (OK, yuck!), which (and I could be wrong) is pretty much as a in-cam JPEG would see it. Or no? Hmmmm.
EDIT: Oh, and All Hail our new 40D Overlords! (just to keep this on-topic)

The RAW conversion in File viewer utility basically mimics the DIGIC chip exactly. So any from-cam JPG will be completely identical to a RAW-converted JPG from file viewer utility. But because it has to emulate the DIGIC chip, it isn't the fastest RAW converter out there.
DPP doesn't create exact camera-replica JPGs, but it's faster, more flexible and has better IQ (in my eyes anyway) than File viewer utility, when it comes to RAW conversion.
