Canon MP-E 65mm refresh rumors

[Dalantech]

Has anyone heard of a refresh for Canon's MP-E 65mm? I've heard from a couple of macro photographers that they couldn't get their current MP-E 65mm lenses repaired because the parts were not available. So does that signal a MP-E 65mm II might be coming, or is the lens simply going to fade out? I just don't see Canon dropping such a unique lens, especially because a lot of people buy it and a Canon body just to shoot macro.

I'm hopeful they do release an updated version, even though most replies may state the current version is fantastic.

I'd really like to see a reduction in weight for those of us who shoot macro hand held.
