Hi, Shel.  I don't check the PDML very often these days since I had tosell my 
LX and 67II, but I popped in today and read about your retailadventures.
Are you looking for a DS2?  Which questions do you have?  We have themin stock 
at Don's Photo in Winnipeg.  While Canadian prices can't goas low as US prices, 
I would be happy to give you a lower price thanyou'll find at any other 
Canadian store.  Let me know off-list ifyou're interested or if you have any 
questions you'd like answeredcorrectly.  :)
Cheers,
Chris Brogden
