    One Australian business has started shipping their pre-orders, I didn't order from this retailer, I'm yet to hear if I am getting anything this week.
    Might make a phone call.

    Guess that means I'm not in the first shipment....
    I'd be thrilled to death if I was getting such an email!

    I called B&H today with hopes of being given a date. Instead I was told that Canon had not yet released to them when bodies would be available :-(

    Just received a phone call, pick mine up on Friday. Yeehah.
    Or should I have gone to Nikon? No the AF on this is superb. Only 2 more sleeps.

    Be careful what you wish for Wally, with all that extra waterproofing, I might take one of me in the shower.

    Wonders where the joke about the 21mm Zeiss is (although that's not weather-sealed...)
    An awful lot of electrons were terribly inconvenienced in the making of this post.

    I preordered mine the morning after it was available at BestBuy.com (because I have a BestBuy card with a high-limit and nothing bought on the card). However, I don't know how soon I'll get it.... ugh!! haha!
