Has kof2003 been dumped?

Well, it´s likely that Capcom might use the atomiswave for the new hardware if they are going to make a new 2d fighter for the arcades.
And as for SNK going over to the atomiswave as their new hardware for upcoming games.......that´s still just a rumor that isn´t comfirmed by neither SNKP or Sammy.

But Sammy has indeed revealed the news of the upcoming king of fighters for the atomiswave, but like i said before....it is not the KOF 2003 we´re talking about, it´s a still to be revealed game that has no releasedate yet.

Yeah KOF 2003 is Neo Geo hardware - I have heard reports of it using some new stuff on the board but I haven't seen any evidence to support that claim as of yet... and besides, this rumours pops up with EVERY new release on the Neo, and has done for the past few years . For the time being SNKP is sticking with the Neo Geo hardware, for many reasons... including that it is probably easier to program for. I'd like to see them move over to the Atomiswave at some point and I am looking forward to the Sammy produced KOF on that system, but for now everything will still be 16-bit

As for KOF 2003 being dumped, yeah I'm sure it is. The game has already seen a limited release in Japanese arcades and a few other places, and there are already bootleg KoF PCB's floating around allegedly, so I am sure that someone out there has dumped it and is probably playing it in an emulator right now. The real question is when that person will decide to distribute the rom dumps to the general public.

I won't be able to get the Neo version, but I'll be happy to grab the PS2 port when it gets released, especially if it is as good a port as SvC. Hopefully they will include more extras though!
