2. I don't think 12fps mechanical 20fps electronic is a rumour any more. Canon Canada's website lists that spec as legit:

4. Also wonder if the certification confirming 5GHz WiFi would have told us if it had GPS?

6. The picture I've seen looks like a flippy screen. I'm not sure though of the validity of the pics.

8. If it is as rumoured, I will replace a GFX50s with one- assuming I can sell the one and afford the other.

9. • Liveview/Movie toggle like previous EOS DSLRs

   
   Based on the photos it doesn't seem to actually have this, btw :unsure:

10. Still kills me a bit that the top left side only has the on-off switch with all that real estate. Why not keep the DSLR on/off switch and add a custom button (or 2) there?

    Because mirrorless cameras operate in a live view mode exclusively?

    I think only the BOLD items are still rumors. like the 45K sensor

    Correct!
    BOLD = still just rumored
    Everything else is more or less confirmed

19. Is there any GPS options?

    Most probably using external reciever or by syncing with cell phone only. So far Canon hasnt mentioned built in GPS(which is a good thing given that GPS can be a battery hog) for this camera.
