looks very nice indeed... For sports photography (among other types), one of the best choices I guess...
But I'm afraid 5D-III will unlikely have less than 21mp (unfortunately)... In my opinion, the higher resolution than the existing 21mp is the last thing to improve 5D2. If the new 5D3 would have the 18mp sensor like this one, plus the 100.000 pixel RGB metering and new Digic 5+, I would seriously think for a migration (of course, after waiting for a future D800).

You probably mean if the new 5D3 would have the 18mp sensor like this one + D800 would have the 36mpx+ sensor....
I´m afraid the migration (for an amateur) is almost impossible once you have several pro lenses with thousand EURos value.
Well, personally I chose Nikon system because they seemed to be going the "less megapixels-better high-iso performance" way. It would be very frustrating for me if the next generation of Nikon semipro/pro cams took a directly opposite way! But it is sheer speculation for the moment....
p.s. the more I read about 1Dx, the more I think Canon is not rebelling against the MP race with this model, they are simply reacting to Nikon eating their lunch with PJs and sports-shooters with the D3 and then D3s for the past 2 years...
