What did he admit to. P-TTL? Hardly a suprise.
higher FPS? Anyone with a tape recorder, video camera, stopwatch can tell you that just watching it in use. If you are letting people out in public with it, it's not going to remain secret.
3" LCD? Also something you are going to be able to see in public use.
From one who knows, I sincerely doubt that this beta would "ever be allowed to be visible in a public setting". The NDA is just that tight.
Sometimes its unavoidable, Let me tell you a "story" and I mean a "story"
I was on Lakeshore drive very much “alone and in what I thought was very private setting” late this afternoon shooting some canvasback ducks with a Tamron that was just acquired attached to a very special something. Up came wandering another photographer armed with his EOS40D equipped to the nines with an impressive array lenses.
We began chatting and he was curious about the Tamron lens I was shooting with. He thought it was a Canon mount but noticed it had a different barrel grip. Very foolishly without thinking I handed him the special something, thank God it is not branded. He fired off a few shots and all he could say was WOW, "who makes this?” Adeptly taking the special something back out his hands, before he had a chance to un-mount the lens to take a peek inside. I quipped "I borrowed it from my brother and I do not know who makes it."
Holding that special something close to my person and quickly dissolved out of sight.
It is a wonderful "story" anyways
