I love the viewfinder! 
And everything else about it.
I really love the new autofocus system.
Track a skater in landscape going up the ramp. As he goes over your head change to portrait. The focus points will automatically change to your pre-set will. Cool!
This is everything I ever wanted in a camera. I am sooooooooooo happy.
The camera acts as a flash master, so if you only have one flash you can trigger it with the camera without pocket wizards? You don't need to buy a couple hundred dollars of extra accessories? AH-HA moment!

It sounds like a sweet camera for those looking for a compact-pro sports package. All of the new features sound great. I could see most if not all of them making their way into the eventual 5D mkIII.
The flash control sounds nice, I wonder how it's implemented though? If it is through the pop up flash it's not going to be any more reliable than IR. An IR control would be nice/r. Either way it's not going to replace some PW's or RP's, or really even an ST-E2 which has a nice AF assist light... Canon still using the flash for AF assist. Oh well gotta find something to complain about

I want a 7D, a 100mm f/2.8L Macro, and a goose that lays golden eggs.
