Ron - Anyone have any guess on the next plateau? With or without being acquired by one of the majors? Regards, L

RonC, Thanks for posting the URL to Steve's Digicams. I am upset that Fuji is releasing two new cameras with SmartMedia and that Sony has decided to stick with the stick. The newer designs of these cameras are quite eye-catching. I was a fan of the Fuji MX-700 design although some find the controls too small and the image quality below other comparable competitors. The good news is... Nikon Coolpix 900s, Officially Soldout! The following was received directly from Nikon USA "Demand for the Nikon Coolpix 900s digital camera has exceeded our most optimistic forecasts. As a result, the Coolpix 900s is sold out. This unprecedented demand was driven in part by numerous industry awards, uniformly excellent product reviews and rousing word-of-mouth from consumers and imaging professionals. When the Coolpix 900 was named the #1 digital camera of 1998 by a leading independent product testing organization, sales accelerated still further. We recognize and regret any inconvenience the extraordinary demand for the Coolpix 900s may have caused for some of our loyal customers. Now for the good news: Some revolutionary new Nikon products, already in expanded production, are on the way. Details about these new products will be available on the Nikon USA website on Feb 18th, 1999. If you are planning to purchase a digital camera, and cannot find a Coolpix 900s, we urge you to wait for the announcement in order to make an informed purchase decision. We expect the demand for these new products to exceed past product sales. Therefore, we urge you to reserve your new Nikon with your local dealer as soon as possible. For the name of your nearest dealer visit nikonusa.com and click into the dealer information page." Nikon is a big supporter of CF and we will have to see what their newest model will be. Ausdauer
