If nobody else jumps in here with a definitive reply I'll chase up the facts to confirm
Rob Galbraith has got a veritable book on the subject - in here.

On the 5D replacement, my suspicion is it'll be 15Mp, Digic III and a 3" screen. And I'm going with 5D MkII, otherwise it'll be a 3D and have a slightly higher feature set.

Ignoring the fact that I don't have the money, I'm torn with getting a 5D now whilst there's the cashback or wait for the new one (in March???)

It'll have a better spec but a higher price . Of course I'm lucky in that I already have two bodies and only 'need' a FF body for it's well full frameness

If you can justify the pennies, I'd keep the 30D and get a 5 as well.
