FWIW, we just bought at $64/pt and Disney let it go. That's in the lower range of what I've seen offered; we were basically buying 2005 pts, though, because the 04 pts had been borrowed into 03 already. Fine by us - we'll borrow from 05 for our 04 stay <g>.

Potentially. There are per-point, yearly maintenance fees, which range from $3-5 per point depending on your home resort. Also, all the resorts except Saratoga may "go away" in 2042, when DVC's lease with Disney is up. You'll still have to pay for park admission, food, and whatnot...
