Canon will announce that from now on their cameras and lenses will only be leased to users on a pay-per-month basis.

It's a good one :D I hope it does include free upgrades to a newer camera too ;)

nope you will only get a new lens cap every 12 month.....

That will be fine as long as its a pinchy one ;D

What I'd like to see (but probably won't) announced...

A 70D with greater pixel density than the 7D, and lower noise.
A pancake lens similar in size to the 40/2.8, perhaps in APS-C, around 20-22 mm. (thinking for the SL1 here)
A pocketable large-sensor camera, similar to the S-100, but with a faster lens and APS-C sensor. Needs to be able to contract the lens so that it'll fit in a shirt pocket.

Hey, a guy can dream, right?

I just saw somewhere that the 70d is now expected in early june, so we can be hopeful.

no new DSLR announcement before august.

Yeah, I've seen that pop up on several other sites due to the cashback program released in Germany leading up to the end of July. That said, I've also seen rumors of a mid-june announcement, and I don't see it unfeasible that canon might announce the 70d earlier (why not the 31st?) and have it be available at the end of July.

I guess we're all just wishing in the end...

Yes, "must" (you forgot the italics). I may only be one, but (a) whether or not I buy the 100D (or any other APS-C camera) depends largely on whether or not Canon comes up with a small EF-S prime to match; and (b) the 60D/7D replacement is now so long overdue and horrendously under-spec'ed compared to the Nikon, Panasonic and Olympus offerings that neither they (the 60D and the 7D) nor the 6D is a viable option for me (singular, one).

I will say, I don't quite understand why Canon still hasn't made any competition for the likes of sigma's 30 DC HSM...
