Does anyone know when Nikon might get around to releasing this lense?

It's been released for quite some time. The problem is that so many
people want it that Nikon can't make them fast enough, and the stores
sell out as soon as they get their shipments.

If you put your email address into the "email me when available" thing
at B&H you'll get a note when they get some in, but you'll need to call
them right at that very moment to place the order or they'll be gone...

I got a mail about it a couple weeks ago (after probably a couple of months
of being on the list). I didn't end up buying the lens, but I guess they
did get some in. I'm sure they were all gone in a matter of hours.

$1400, which is why I didn't buy it right then.
