I don't know of anyone who has one although I haven't looked hard.  Are you on a waiting list?  Have you purchased and it just hasn't shipped yet?  You indicated you were a pro, have you asked your Nikon contacts or have you tried it through NPS?  This is the third post of yours I have read saying you wanted to buy a D6 but I have yet to see what you have done in trying to purchase one.

I used to be with NPS but my old equipment disqualified me. I tried purchasing from Adorama when they emailed me they had some, probably just a few.. But it a Jewish holiday weekend and the stores were all closed. I ordered it as soon as the email came in. But they were not open till Tuesday and by then they were all gone. Right now I just put the money down on one at B&H but all the stores in NY are closed till the 11th. So we will see.. I am about ready to just order one directly from Nikon..

Why not get on the list at one of the OR NPD-s? There seems to be a couple of Nikon Professional Dealers in your state.

Some of my friends in the USA swear by Berger Bros for getting pro equipment faster than through the largest dealers.

Well I was able to purchase one and even shot a few images with it Tuesday after I got it... Call Pro Photo in downtown Portland and oddly they had one in stock so I quickly went down and bought it.. They were telling me they get one at a time.. If things were normal they said they normally get 8 or 9 at a time..  So since they got one and sold it, they can order another one now... Crazy times right now..

I love the D6, it is an awesome camera and oddly enough got me back in with Nikon Professional Services too..  Well the D6 and the Nikkor 120-300 F/2.8 lens..
