I guess you mean D4x? The 1Ds is a great camera (as is the 3Dx, obviously). One can be happy with being "stuck" for such a studio camera for a while.
It is widely known that Canon stopped the development and introduction for the 1Ds mk IV because they felt the improvements and step up from the 1Ds mk III might not be big enough considering any pending competitors release. This means development is going on as we speak, and a follow-up camera will be more than just an iteration.
It is fine if Nikon announces a D4, Canon will roll out new cameras when they are well and ready, just like Nikon will do. I imagine the D3x follow up, 5D mk III and 1Ds mk III follow up to all be as impressive as the current models were at introduction. And I sincerely hope that Sony will bring a fully featured FF DSLR too, and not in the guise of a problem prone SLT design.

Yeah I know that, it was just a silly retort to genotypewriter's "blood shed and open fires rising from the Nikon camp", sorry <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/rolleyes.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
