October? No way.

When Nikon announces the D800 next week, Canon will be announcing something within a very few weeks.

unless canon had planned a lame cut down 7D-AF, 4-5fps, 18MP 5D3 and realized it would get crushed and has to re-tool up one of their better try alternative 5D3 test models for production instead?

anyway i'm getting silly here speculating on 30 layers deep of rumors

The 5D MK II was announced about 4 weeks after the D700. It took slightly over 2 months to get mine, and it was among the first shipped. Adorama really worked to get a huge nmber of them shipped in two or three days after receiving them. The camera exceeded all sales estimates, so those who waited to order had to wait about two weeks to get theirs. Many were not willing to pre-order so they waited for months until the cameras were in stock, but, once cameras started shipping, there were few who actually ordered and had to wait more than three weeks.

and some didn't pre-order from a big shop but walked into a little mom and pop local camera store and snagged a copy just like that on day 1 without issue even before some big chains even got first shipment even for pre-order people ;D
