After reading Mr. Phil Askey’s excellent review of the Sony DSLR-A100, I almost plunked down $999.99 today. However, I managed to talk myself into waiting a few days; after all, I do have a few bills to pay. I am pretty sure (unless Nikon’s new DSLR really kicks butt) that I will be buying the A100 within the next few weeks, so be prepared for some of those long-promised media updates to finally land at digivation. Stay tuned for more, and if you’re bored you can check out my Flickr or Zooomr photostreams.
