Haha - I love how the above photo was once the Mark II, then the Mark III, and now the Mark IV...just wait till they actually include those features, then what? Huh?! THEN WHAT?!
The Canon universe will explode as the Nikon universe implodes. Canon everywhere.
Unfortunatly there are pre production bodies out there and from what I am hearing it is very flawed, I heard from a few people that after using it they are sticking with the original and that the 40D is even a better camera. We'll see what happens, maybe they will work out some bugs before they ship this time

Not suprising considering how close-mouthed Canon has been in the past. Doesn't mean it's not in the hands of several beta-testers somewhere that have signed ND agreements.
I'd expect a "Canon Guy" to be particularly close-mouthed lest the company find out he leaked the info and can him.
BINGO!
The 5D mk2 is being tested out and about by a small number of people. Just like the mark3's were at this point last year. I was surprised Canon didnt release the 1Ds mk3 sooner since it has been ready for a year. Hopefully the 5D mk2 is unleashed in a much tighter schedule if not it wont be available for PMA nad instead well have to wait till summer.
My guess is, Canon is waiting on Nikon to make available their D3 and D300 and then release the new 5D model.
Cant blame them, the current 5D and 1Ds mk2 are still untouched by any other DSLRs.
