RE: Homtech...



Quick update, I have just spoken to Customer Support at Nikon UK and I am
assured that the camera has not been discontinued, but there are supply
problems at the moment, middle of April and everything should be back to
normal... heres hoping.

Anybody care to comment on the coolpix if they have one?
