Not sure how long this will last, but B&H has the 5D2 body in stock on the website. I imagine that won't last very long. But it is discounted 4 cents! Only $2,699.95 now.
Amazon has the kit setup where you can add it to your cart and it'll ship when it comes in, so it appears that Canon is finally catching up. Let's all do our part to boost the economy, and go buy one.

At current exchange rates, it's actually better buying from a Canadian retailer; which is an odd circumstance. Vistek has it for $3100 CAD, http://www.vistek.ca/store/ProPhotoDigitalSLRCameras/239663/canon-eos-5d-mark-ii-body.aspx

Make me an interest free loan with no payback and I'll order mine today!

Just checked B&H and it says "Out of Stock". Guess that didn't last long!

You're right, it's gone!
I signed up at www.nowinstock.net, so I get bunches of emails for when it's in stock, but 70% of the time the email just says available for pre-order. Today's was legit, at least for 20 or 30 minutes!

Just bought one today( 12/18/08) from Woodland Hills Camera in Woodland Hills for $2700. The store is getting their delivery tomorrow and I'm not sure how many they are getting.
