The prices are high and I'd love to see how a lot of this gear is being paid for in billings. The in-built obsolescence of much of digital equipment is frightening however, and at least in my field (IT training), it's a race as to whether you can get a return from the equipment before it breaks, becomes outdated etc. Stuart Phillips - -----Original Message----- From: B.

As of this a.m., the Nikon D1x at about $4650, D1h at $3560, D100 at $1995, and Canon D60 at $2195, are ALL out-of-stock at B&H - but no problem finding a Leica M7, M6 or R8. And, for that matter, I wonder if anyone noted the fact that on this week's LUG sale day one of the dealers was already offering M7 demos at below the price of a new M6? That sure doesn't bode well this soon after the camera's much heralded release. B. D.
