Nikon V1

The Nikon V1 has had two price drops since the V2 came out. I bought at the first price drop. You can buy it now after the 2nd price drop. A great Camera. Do the research, go out and get one if it meets your needs.
See my update to the 09-5-12 post for more info.

Microsoft Camera Codec

In your windows folders you have pictures, and the pictures that are from various cameras in their raw format are shown as a generic icon - you can't see the picture itself. Often don't know what the picture is until you open it in an application. I found this the other day and was shocked that I didn't know about it before. Microsoft has a camera codec pack that will show those pictures in the icon state in the Windows folders. This is a real time saver and removes yet one more thorn from your side.
