I don't know about the factory demo model. I finally decided to go buy the Nikon D70s at the big chain electronics store, I just couldn't wait. It wasn't badly priced and was lower than some places I've seen on the web.

Do you think the extended protection plan...replaces batteries once a year, they will completely clean the camera (insides too) once a year, repair work, yada yada. It's $150 for four years. I didn't purchase it, but if I want it, I can return tomorrow and add it.

Thanks again,
Carrie
