Interesting... The message was just delivered to my mail server this morning...

Anyway, I'm more interested in the new 28-300mm L anyway... :D

I'm still waiting to preorder that one..

B&H had the 1D Mark II available for about 2 hours on Friday on the web. Unfortunately, their web site updates stock availability only every hour. As a result, some people that placed web orders and got automatic confirmation emails, later received email stating that the item was backordered. That is based on a call I made today to B&H and information I got at DPreview and Rob Galbraith's forum. I called B&H at 11:30 AM EST on Friday and ordered one as a result of seeing it available on their web site. I don't like to place orders on my company computer. When I called there were only 4 left. It continued to show in stock on the web for at least an hour after that.
I think they did the best their system allowed them to.
