Well the *ist D is now in Australia. I got a phone call from Camera house today saying that they have a "Display Model" and that stock would be arriving next week. I am of course welcome to come in and have a play with it, but they can't sell it.
I rang the shop where I have ordered mine and they said that mine is due to arrive on the 25th - in 6 days time. this fits in with what CR Kennedy (the importer said about shipments arriving about 6 days apart for the next month and longer. So I should be 6 days away from my *ist D. And in the mean time I can go and play with one in a shop (except for the fact I have no time to go there for the next week).
