USA
We're been told that a certain business was told by Canon to expect their order of 5 1D Mark IV bodies on December 15, 2009.
Canada
I've been told to expect the bodies to be available the first week of January in Ontario. That's from 1 store, looking for confirmation from others.
EU
We should start seeing them appearing in various parts of Europe around the 15th of December.
Asia
I've received no information about the Asian market… as usual, they'll probably get a few first.
Thanks Mark

Yeah, like the guy from Australia, I was told we’d get them here in New Zealand the first week of December (which, technically, is also the last week of November), so I guess we’re included in the Asia/Pacific region as far as release goes.

As it is, the 7D and 1D3 (after the fixes) seem to deliver MUCH better performance than the D300/D3.
Now, let’s see how the 1D4 does.
More interestingly, what is Rob Galbraith going to say? ;)
Use the crop tool as part of an action, select the images in Bridge and do all 1000+ photos at once.
Galbraith will never talk good about Canon unless the whole world proves him wrong. I mean think about it… That’s pretty much his only claim to fame. How many people would be talking about him in the forums and such if it wasn’t for the AF deal?
1.3 crop factor.
