When the camera was announced Canon said the grip would ship the last week of April.

I'm mad I just changed the rrs L plate I ordered three weeks ago to the gripped version....theyre starting to ship out the revised no grip version now, but canon sinks my ship with this. Hell. I just ordered a plain flat Kirk plate for this camera to tide me over.....

That's a good point. Canon might not be at 100% operating abilities yet.
