Powershot S5 Replacement?

I wanted to know if anyone has found any leaked information on the Powershot S6 / S7 or if Cannon has dropped out of the superzoom point and shoot market. I have been itching to buy a S5 and load CHDK but have been holding out hoping the new version will come out soon.

Not much specs available.

sx1, sx10 - all my dreams come true!

- if chdk will support them
- if their prices drop quickly (500/360gbp - god, its a lot!)

does anyone know if they have dryos or some other opsys that chdk CAN support?

Hej,
Also you can add for SX1 : if it's available in europe. Seems they can't produce enough CMOS sensors and it won't be available in US, not sure about europe, but not as fast as other cams anyway.
