I think that Nikon have handled the launch supplies of the D500 very poorly. Most manufacturers try to build launch stocks so that preorders can be fulfilled nearly immediately.
Since there was no D400 they should have assumed that the demand for the D500 would be very high (which apparently it is) and so built up large launch stock.
The D5 stocks are fairly plentiful apparently so you can go and get one off the shelf!
Going to wait for the D700 replacement ?D900?.
Not sure why you are surprised JK? Every digital Nikon I've bought at launch was on short supply or on back order. The D5 has had its first flush...it won't be long before D500s are on the shelves as well.
While you are waiting...would you delete the above blank post. Got so excited I hit post before typing.
