Reponses Photo (French magazine) just published a test on a "99% final" D70. As there is probably no chance that the readers of this forum would go out and buy the magazine, here is their sum-up:

Plus points:

- reactivity (startup, shooting - just like a film SLR)
- good images quality up to 400 ISO (improvement on D100)
- improved shutter & metering

Minus points:

- disappointing viewfinder (but the D100 wasn't better)
- controls a bit complex
- autofocus slightly noisy (except with AF-S)
- no USB2

If you already have a D100 then there probably aren't enough improvements to make it worthwhile changing to a D70.
