A major manufacturer with an existing relationship will have
pre-production copies and specifications
for design and testing. If Sony is going to have the chip in quantity
soon then their major customers already
have something to work with.

If they are like most other companies they probably hired a fulfillment
house to handle it for them. These places are usually run on a very
tight budget and the only way for them to make a profit is to run as
lean as possible. This can lead to very spotty operations.

B&H is still bundling a new D with the DA 16-45 for $1599. This used to
be accompanied by a $200 rebate. I'm not sure if that rebate is still
in effect. BTW, I finally got my rebate check from Pentax this week.
Took about six months and one letter of complaint.

Haven't used the DS yet. Picked it up and it felt quite nice, however, with
a better one-handed grip.
Personally, I don't want to live w/o HyperProgram mode, so if *I* were going
to purchase a second, it would have to be another *ist D.
