1. That's pretty standard for discontinued cameras...
There are probably only a few left, and dealers are trying to get them out of the pipeline.

The new Olympus E-3 looks very promising (it's the only DSLR to have a tilting live view screen; I must admit I see little reason to get excited about a non-tilting one). I just wish a) it had 12 instead of 10 MP and b) that it didn't use their bizarre "four-thirds" system. I was a big fan of Olympus' OM series of film SLRs, and would like to see them come up with a digital equivalent. The E-3 is the closest they've come.
