Canon's new dSLR to go the ASUS Eee PC way?

by Leonard Goh |
Remember our report about the rumor of Canon's sub-US$500 dSLR? The Japanese firm told us it cannot comment on hearsay and we respect that. But if our sources are correct, the EOS lineup may have a new sibling tomorrow.

Spanish Web site martin-iglesias.com has a small ad banner stating the arrival of the EOS 1000D on June 10. While Netizens are speculating about the specifications, we can't ask for much (can we?) if it is really tagged at less than US$500.

It is said that the EOS 1000D is Canon's answer to an affordable dSLR like Nikon is to the D40. But until we see the specification sheets and confirmed retail price, we can't make any assumptions.

Keep a lookout here as we will update as soon as we get new information.
