I hope to buy a Canon 20D very soon. Now, I need to find a vendor. I am
looking for ease of service and rapid turn-around when it comes time to
have my camera serviced or repaired. It would be nice if the vendor has
multiple offices nationwide, so I could have service when I travel.
What suggestions do you have?

I would look to see if you could get it locally at a Costco.

How about Sam's Club?

If there's a Sam's Club near you that sells the 20D, why not?

Fast turn around on camera repairs is an oxymoron unless you are a
working pro who has developed a relationship with the Camera companies
professional services operation or an independent repair shop. Even if Sam,
Costco etc were to take the camera in for repair, they would likely ship
off to Canon and you sit an wait. First for the estimate and then for
the repair. This is probably going to take a least a couple of weeks..
and maybe longer. It would be nice to find what you are looking for,
but alas, I think you are searching for a Holy Grail which does not
exist.
