Basically, here are the two relevant paragraphs (and I quote!):

"Photokina marks the 15-year anniversary of EOS as a brand. Canon is announcing two new EOS models at the show - the world's highest resolution Pro-camera, the EOS 1Ds and the EOS 300V, which is predicted to become the world’s number 1 selling SLR camera.

The EOS-1Ds features the first ever full frame 35mm CMOS sensor with 11.1 million effective pixels. The EOS-1Ds capture astounding detail & colour, almost doubling the resolution ordinarily considered state of the art for a digital SLR camera in the world today."

The news has now been pulled. I don't believe the premature release was accidental (give us *some* credit, Canon!), rather a free form of advertising for Canon!

It's still going to be my next digital body! :D
