I know the rumor sites are suspect as they speculate so much that they eventually hit something right. But there are reports that Canon will announce two new bodies and three new lenses.
I'm guessing the new bodies are product refreshes for either the 1Ds3, 50D or Rebel XS. While the lenses are something connected to the Winter Games & World Cup like the 70-200/2.8L II IS?
IF Canon decides to stick to it's release cycle we won't be seeing a 1DsIV until late Spring or Summer. I think we'll see a 60D and a new Rebel with a few EF-S lenses and perhaps a new L sometime in Feb.
Canon DSLR with high ISO (3200/6400) as good as (or better than) the D700. Pop-up flash, something better than 9-point AF. FF (16+ MPs, 5+ fps) or APS-H sensor (14+ MPs, 7+ fps). Doubtful that Canon would put an APS-H sensor in a non-pro body.

I've heard that the announcement will be the 8th. The 9th sounds plausable though. I have no clue what is going to be announced though.
Canon usually make their new product announcements on Tuesdays.

A replacement for the 5d2 would be a distant second choice, but if they just improved every aspect of the current model it could work...
Where did you pre-order?
