It was an interesting enough message, but stating the obvious. You would need to have been on Mars not to know that the 20D MkII (30D) is due for replacement this September. The model run out and production re-fit is obvious too.
He could be genuine, but it doesn't really reveal anything most of us couldn't already figure out for ourselves. It is about that time in the cycle for the official rumours to start emerging. A brand new poster is usually the one to do it.
When the MkII came out there was a guy called 'superpeter' who started leaking like crazy in the run up to the release with specs, images, and he would dispute some specs being touted by others. He was spot on, and was preening himself on the release day, but when the MkII was panned the language of his posts changed, and they sounded like they were coming from Canon Japan, not USA as they originally did, as the English was a bit strange suddenly. His last couple of posts were pretty much damage control, and trying to say how good the MkII was, then he just disappeared altogether and hasn't been seen since.
Maybe the OP is 'superpeter' MkII. But who really cares?
