Apologies if my statement about waiting for rebates by check confused this issue
any further. (As if it needed more confusion!) Last fall, when I bought my 14n,
the rebate program was marketed directly to the potential buyer by Kodak. I
received a mailing that said essentially, "buy a 14n at whatever dealer you
choose, get your best price, then send in the attached coupon with proofs of
purchase and we'll send you a check for $250." The dealer was not involved at
all. I assumed the process was still similar.

Actually, I think a lot of us bought ours when the price point of the camera vs.
what we could do with it, within its limitations, made economic sense to us.
(Especially if we had a lot of Nikon lenses already.) I had zero expectations of
ever being able to upgrade the camera. The fact that this will be possible is
unexpected and just icing on the cake. If and when I do upgrade my 14n, my total
outlay will be about equal to the price of a new SLRn for a camera that will be
slightly less.  But then I'll have had the use of it for 6 months already, so
you
have to balance that all out.
