I found a P-2000 @ a Circuit City for $190 and thought that I had found "the ticket" for dumping my vacation pic on....
They found the thing in their back room and were trying to get it out of their inventory... they didn't know much about it so we did some quick research on the net and found that it DID read Nikon RAW (.nef) files. However, we didn't read enough to find out that since it is an older model, it didn't read cards larger then 1GIG. (there is a firmware update to correct that...) and it can't read files bigger then 8mb... (no firmware update for that however...) I had my camera in my car and found out that it couldn't read my 2GIG SD card, so back to the store it went.... so we ended up on vacation with my laptop and that's how I dumped my pictures. I did pick up a GPS unit and a projector while shopping, and the GPS was GREAT while on vacation... and the projector has be fun for viewing the pictures and videos from vacation...
This is me after hiking in Zion with my "loaded" Targus backpack
LOADED = 2 ltr hydration water pack, Nikon D80, Sony Handycam D8, and some snacks... my almost 10 lb Toshiba laptop stayed in the rental car, I would not have made it out of the park if I had to carry that thing around.

When I went of vacation, I didn't even put a dent in my 4gb card.
