D80 debuts at Number 9 in the Weekly Top 20 Most popular digital camera (5th most popular DSLR... out of 9 DSLRs in top 20).

Nikon D200 still leads the DSLR pack at Number 4 outselling the Sony A100 despite being twice as expensive.... Pentax also doing very well.

I'm suprised to the see that the D80 is already being sold.

I wasn't expecting to see that for at least another month.

Or six.

Photokina is in Cologne in late September. I expect in the weeks leading up to that Canon will announce the 400D and at least one other DSLR.

Walked into the new Fletchers on Pitt St Sydney yesterday and over heard someone asking about a D80, and the store guy said they had 4 of them on order

Which, in terms of Maxwell's acquiring and delivering stock is totally meaningless. :)
