Thanks for the tips, Harvey. The problem with my down coat is that I don't have a down coat. And the way it's looking, that's not going to change right away. BC.com had the Arcteryx Atom SV on sale for $125 today, so I'm going to give it a shot. It's not down, it's CoreLoft, but I've been hearing good things.
I wouldn't doubt that I'll end up with a down jacket as well pretty soon here though. Some of the down jackets that have been pointed out here in this thread have really got my mouth watering, so to speak.
