Just received the full text of the Nikon D3/D3X  extended service program in Canada:

Thank you for purchasing your new Nikon D3/D3X camera. In appreciation, and at no charge to you, Nikon Canada Inc. (“Nikon”) offers an initial Service Program (the “Service Program”) described below for your new Nikon D3/D3X. 

Services: 

Unlimited preventative maintenance cleanings – Image Sensor Cleaning 

Two comprehensive check-ups and cleanings; one in the first year of ownership and one in the second 

Routine adjustments as necessary resulting from normal usage, excluding cosmetic “wear and tear” 

Firmware updates that may be available from time to time from Nikon 

Commencement and Initial Service Period: This Service Program is effective as of March 30, 2009 on all new D3/D3X cameras purchased from an Authorized Nikon Canada Dealer and is applicable for an initial period of two years from the date of original purchase. Also, D3/D3X cameras purchased new from an Authorized Nikon Canada Dealer prior to March 30, 2009, are automatically covered, starting March 30, 2009, until two years after the date of original purchase or until March 30, 2010, whichever period is greater.
