Correct Revels - glad to see your not thinking that this conversation is about Canon ;)
No motor = no problem IMO! Plenty of lenses out there that will work!
As for the D40 - go forth and purchase, dont think you will find a new SLR with 2 year warranty any cheaper!

The VR was not the deciding issue, and your right - it does not make much of a difference. Build and finish won it for me!!
And I cant talk really - I now own neither!!!
One has the 18-55 VR, th eother the standard 18-55.
Have owned both and I found the VR version better built, but chunkier and fells better, the VR works and the finish on the lens is textured like the D40/D60 body, where as the standard lens is just smooth plastic.
Both produce excellent...
The Nikon 70-300 VR is also 4.5-5.6 but have a look at flickr and the results from this lens are excellent.
If you intend to use it in good to good ish light it will be fine!!
There are lots of AF-S & HSM lenses for the D40 etc. My set up in an 16-85, 50mm f1.4 and next a 70-300. All of which AF on my D60 and cover everything I need!

Well I have gone full circle!
I went to Currys yesterday and tried the Acent (re-baged MSI Wind), the Acer and Toshiba. I loved the Colour of the Acer (Blue) but as Mike_182 mentioned, the build of the samsung is actually better! I decided to not even try the dell as the function keys have...
Right my thread is now VOID! Keeping the notebook and now looking to either get a damn good big laptop or get a new home system built as ours is slow, old and shite!
Yeah I guess thats what I meant! The silver trim is not for my liking and the unit I had delivered came with a few marks on the trim from new!!
Think its either the Dell Mini or MSI Wind - tried the Acer in Currys and it was alright but the lid felt a bit flimsy. No where has the other two for...
Really didnt like the silver plastic on the Samsung, had a look in currys today and the Acer was ok - anyone know if the battery sits flush on the acer?
