I don't think it will ever happen, see the price of EOS 1V and F5, they are
over 1.5K and only a film camera. They will keep the price in 2-3K range for
model with top body (F5 and EOS1) and the price of a lower end one (F100 or
F80 and EOS30, EOS3..etc) may be in the 1-1.5K range. On the other hand your
last assumption for the SD9 may work, based on the feature I don't see a
market for them.

> Applying Moore's Law to the EOS-1Ds body, this will drop from $9K to $1K
in 18*log2(9/1)= 57 months, or 4.76 years. The Pro14n body will drop to $1K
in 18*log2(4/1)= 36 months, or 3 years. The SD9 will take 18 months.
