Very informative thread. I'm in a similar situation, was looking at the D3100 but you've convinced me to go for the D5100.
John Lewis have a D5100 with additional 55-200mm VR Lens on their website for £620. In store it's only £430, so with the £90 cashback that can be claimed from Nikon it seems like an exceptional deal.
