Wake up! :-)

It already is. They make the best 35mm-like digital cameras around. Canon
only supplies the bodies (EOS1n). Well, that's not quite true, Canon sells
them too as their own. The software for both have now been unified in the
developer's toolkit, so they are now truly interchangeable.

Now if they could only make great film again... besides the new spate of
wonderful chrome films.
