It's going to be replaced, probably at PMA, by two separate cameras, and Canon simply underestimated demand for it and sold out of the production run far sooner than they thought they would. Since the production lines were already devoted to the new cameras, another run of the D60 was not feasible. But the early "demise" of the D60 in no way indicates a lack of support for it--rather, it indicates its overwhelming popularity and far stronger than expected sales. --Mike
