There are renewed rumours of Nikon D3000, a video-less version of the D5000. How true are the rumours? Well, at the current moment it is still speculation.

Nikon has released a firmware update for its D40 and D40x DSLRs.
Version 1.12 for the D40 and Version 1.01 for the D40x improve
compatibility of both cameras with Nikon's new EN-EL9a batteries. With
the updated firmware, the D40 should deliver approximately 510 shots in
single-frame shooting mode using the EN-EL9a, according to CIPA
standard tests, rather than 470 with the original EN-EL9 pack.
