I don't care too much how the number the camera but I do like having higher-end models have higher numbers. But whether they start it with a 7 or a 2 or a 6 or a 3, all I care about is that the camera is out.

Unless they are going to have 3 bodies named 500/700/900 for ama/adv-ama/pro

This would mean that the current A100 will eventually be replaced by a 500. This would seem like the Minolta numbering...

Ah, sweet speculation...
