Last evening I visited three stores to check prices and to possibly

an istDS2. Buydig and Beach Camera, and another the name of which I've
forgotten, didn't list the camera as being available. Some other

more expensive generally - did show the camera in stock. Odd ... I'll
have
to call Buydig a little later to see what's up.
I purchased a DS2 last Monday (should arrive today or tomorrow) and it
was one of the last 10 that Pentax Canada had, not in stock at Pentax
Canada but factory stock in the Philippines. They had no more on hand
in Canada.
So stock of DS2s in Canada is currently limited to what is on-hand in
stores.
I don't know if it's discontinued or just between production runs. But
they were offering a $50 rebate in Canada if you bought one with a
lens, which is usually the sign that they're getting rid of the last
ones.
