-Weathersealing. From various sources, plus the fact that the prototypes  
had a-typically rotary switches only.
-Pentaprism. A pentamirror seems unlikely.

-20 point AF. Rumour, probably from Dpreview. Would eplain why the entry  
cameras both got 11 point-AF, instead of five or three (which were  
available).

Pick one :o)
