The price of most digital cameras trend downwards over time, and the same should occur in the case of the Nikon D3000 digital SLR camera.
I’m not planning for any scheduled updates, but do check back here from time to time for the latest prices and availability information on the D3000.

Battery options and accessories for the D3000
Nikon EN-EL9a Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery for D3000 (7.2V / 1080mAh): $37.99. It’s a good idea to purchase a spare battery as a backup so that the camera doesn’t run out of power during extended shooting sessions. The D3000 is also compatible with the older EN-EL9 battery, which holds slightly lower amounts of charge (7.4V / 1000mAh).
Nikon ML-L3 IR (Infrared) Wireless Remote Control: $15.27
For storage, the D3000 uses SD or SDHC cards.
Refer to Rob Galbraith’s SD / SDHC card write speed tests (done on a Nikon D90) to get an idea on the relative write and read speeds of different brands of cards. At the time of writing (Oct 29, 2009), the SanDisk Extreme III SDHC cards occupy the top two spots.
Good luck shopping for your D3000!
