Because of the card issue, and because of the complexity of these damn
things, the sensible thing if you buy another body is to get the same as
the first one.

For those of you who have all the *ist D's, is there a consensus that

What is there, the original *istD, the DL, the DS & DS2, any more?
If you were buying today, would you choose one over the others? And why?
I know a few people who have both a D and a DS. Some like the D more,
some like the DS more, others don't care.
I played with the D in the store at the same time I was choosing which
one to buy and chose the DS ... both because I liked the feel and
controls more, and because it was half the price. Going to buy a second
body, I thought long and hard about getting a D and stuck with the DS.
Why? It does the job, I don't have to deal with card interchangeability
issues, and it remains just fine for my use.
The DS2 is very much the same as the DS far as I can tell so far, just a
larger LCD and some incremental changes in menu bits.
The DL has a less expensive viewfinder and less sophisticated AF system,
other changes that are similar to what the DS2 has. I haven't heard
anyone that I can think of complaining about the viewfinder or AF.
