I was in Best Buy today. They have been sold out of D7000's since Black Friday. But they had ONE in the display case. The salesgirl told me they just got 2 in by FedEx this morning and one is gone already. Seems their distribution warehouse found a whole pallet of them mislabeled as D5100's and have allocated 2 units per store, selling at $1399 WITH the 18-105mm kit lens!
That's the problem with frequent camera updates. When rumors start about a new model, sales of the current model decline. Eventually, prices drop enough to make the older model a good choice. Afterall, the D7000 isn't going to get any worse when the D7100 comes out. It will still be a great camera. (I have to keep telling myself that.)
