Canon is offering some enhanced support if you register your Digital EOS
camera at their site. I know it applies to the 5D and may apply to
other cameras as well.
To find it, go to the Support page:
http://www.usa. canon.com/ consumer/ controller? act=SupportIndex Act
and select 1: EOS Camera, 2: Digital EOS, 3: your model. Then Go, and
look on the right side for a small box that has the offer.

" As a special service to our valued EOS 5D customers, if you register
between now and August 31, 2008 you will be entitled to the following
complimentary benefits*:
$100.00 Voucher for Repair Service
Priority Telephone Support
Exclusive Email Support Address
3 Day Turnaround Time for Repairs, and a 20% Discount on Service and
Parts
Simply complete this form and you will receive your benefits packet
in approximately 4 - 6 weeks."
Thanks for the tip, Sandy. Sounds like a good deal....Gail.

I signed up for this a few months ago and did receive the documents they promised. I haven't had an occasion to use any of the "enhanced" support features although I've had good luck with Canon service in the past.

I plugged in the 5D and didn't see any offer.

Thanks Sandy! After a bit of searching on the Canon site I was able to register my 1D Mark III and get the support voucher. Very cool!!

I got mine from Canon for my 5D! Sweet!
Too bad they didn't offer one for my G9 that I dropped and broke on Monday! Hell, I only had it for a week!

Thanks Sandy. I just took advantage of this offer.
I think this is an incentive from Canon for purchasers to register their cameras. It seems to be available to EOS owners.
