Default Canon Speculation....OLED Displays?

I've seen the usual speculation and rumors about the new crop (no pun
intended ) of Canon DSLRs. More megapixels, self cleaning sensors
etc. However, if I recall an article on Pop Photo sometime this past
year, a Canon rep. made a statement to the effect that in 2007 we will
be seeing OLED (vs. LCD) displays on Canon cameras. Has anybody heard
anything to this effect?

The OLED display on my RH10 Minidisc recorder is simply invisible in
brightish daylight. So, unless this has been fixed it's no improvement on
the LCD displays on my 5D & 30D.

Why don't cameras use transflective LCDs? That's what my color Garmin
GPS unit has, and it's perfectly visible in direct sunlight, or (via the
backlight) in the dark. Still not so good outdoors in shadow, but
that's a tough one. Here's hoping for digital paper.
