Hi,
I got a different response from Canon support here in Norway. I got the reply in swedish and I have translated it and asked for permission to distribute the response. Here is the reply (translated with the help of google translate):

Hi Øyvin Eikeland ,
Thanks for contacting Canon Support !
No, this is not true. We have received information that the driver for Mac OS X 10.9 will be released for the products CP900 , CP810 and CP800 as they had been on the market for such a short time. However, I have no information on when the drivers are released , but you will be under Support & Downloads for each product on the Canon website .
It is very true that with each release of new operating systems , we here at support receive many complaints due to lack of drivers . Now it was 2.5 months since Mac released the Mavericks and Windows 8.1, which means that Canon are working hard now to create new drivers for as many products as possible and we are here to support work with customer satisfaction.
Poor information means that many do not know that devices may be incompatible, either because of excessive cost , lack of demand , or in the older SELPHY product cases - due to technical differences that SELPHY printer from some years back , you can not create drivers for the newer operating systems.
Canon respect the client's right to update their computers , but wish that you should be mindful of the effects it can have on one's applications and devices . Personally, I prefer to be a few years behind in updating the operating system just because of this problem . Both you and I are Mac users , and for us regarding problems with demand even more when fewer people have Macs and demand for new drivers or similar automatically becomes lower.
I hope you understand , and wish you great photos with your CP900 !
Sincerely,
T. Christoffersson

I must say I am very pleased with the feedback from Canon support here in Norway. Redogg will save my *** in the short run and Canon will hopefully step up and deliver drivers pretty soon (as T Christoffersson promised in his mail.)
