The price of most digital cameras trend downwards over time, and the same price drop should occur in the case of the Nikon Coolpix P90 compact digital camera.
I’m not planning for any scheduled updates, but do check back here from time to time for availability information and the latest and best prices on the Nikon P90 and accessories.

Nikon Coolpix P90 12.1MP Digital Camera with 24x Wide Angle Optical Vibration Reduction (VR) Zoom and 3 inch Tilt LCD: $319.00 ($15.95 price reduction since the last update).
Typical accessories for the P90
Nikon EN-EL5 Rechargeable Li-ion Battery: $23.01. Get a second, backup battery for your P90. This way, you can be sure your camera continues to have a power source during extended shooting sessions.
For storage, the P90 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.
To ensure smooth recording of video and high resolution images, go for Class 6 or faster cards.
Good luck shopping for your Nikon P90!
