Eyewitness report from Canada: Nikon D80 out of stock! There is still hope for Nikon D90 next week.

An email from a reader:

Hi there,

 

I read this article https://nikonrumors.com/2008/06/23/eyewitness-report–d80-out-of-stock.aspx, I work for a large Canadian authorized dealer (no American counterpart, nor owned by an American company), and I decided to look up in our database whether the D80s were out of stock in our warehouse too. I can confirm that the D80 body, D80 with 18-70mm kit (discontinued) and D80 with 18-55mm VR Kit, and the D80 with 18-135mm kit are all out of stock in the warehouse, these are the only D80 kits we carry. Generally if we sell a D80, we get one within a few days, meaning the warehouse is more than well stocked and has been as long as I have worked there, it is suspicious for an item like that to be out of stock in the warehouse.

That means Nikon D90 is still not out of the question for next week.

The rumor from Finland is: new Nikon 70-200 and 28-70 lenses (or just a software bug)

I reader pointed us to:

http://www.nikon.fi/family/fi_FI/categories/broad/24.html

where mysteriously the 70-200 lens got listed twice – creating space to add a new 70-200 lens or something else?
The same with the 28-70 lens:
Why are those lenses listed twice? Is this just a simple software bug?
