I'm still using my D70S and lovin' every outing with it. For what I want and need, it fits my needs just fine for now. 99% of my images are digital only. Rarely do I have anything printed, and when I do, it's no larger then a 8x10. The D70S has just enough features so I never feel limited or frustrated. I use the 5 focus points all the time, as florals, and macro florals are what I photograph most of the time.
I'll be the 1st to agree that the 2 inch LCD screen is small by today's 3 inch standard screens. There is no Live View option, so the only thing I use the screen for is some menu changes, and every once in a while making sure that I captured the image I was after. I don't shoot video, so not having that option is fine with me. Also by today's standards there aren't a lot of those million bells and whistle options. I do bracket and shoot some HDR imaging. The 3 frame max bracket is a limiting factor, but more then livable.
My next step up later this year will be to a D90.
