Excellent, thanks for that.
The review is positive and hopefully it won't be long before it is more widely available.
AllSeeingEye:
If anyone wants it for $350 (which is very pricey, imo):

To be honest that doesn't work out too bad in UKP. However, warranty questions and the (likely) chance of customs charges are putting me off.
donsullivan:
Is it normal business pattern for Canon to just go radio silent when they miss a committed delivery date (their own press release) like this? I've never bought anything so early in the product lifecycle from Canon so it's not clear to me whether this is normal behavior for them or an exception.
Most (certainly not all) companies at least acknowledge that they've missed their own shipment target with some sort of an update. I understand lots of attention was focused on the 5D3 'issue' but they released the firmware for the 5D3 that supports this device and I'd really like to get my hands on it. Some sort of actual update on a new target doesn't seem an unreasonable expectation.
RedEye:
not sure. I orded and received a 5d3 in the first round. Fantastic camera. I have about 4 business days before I need to cancel the order, so hopefully they come through on the GP-E2. On the other hand, it's just a gimmic to me, bells on the stocking, so I really don't care what they do. Communication would always be good though.
