Fallenhawk,
First off, I commend you for asking your question

. The devil is VERY adept at deception and what better way to deceive an honest heart than to create doubt in what is or is not the original word of God? We must have an accurate translation in order to know what God wants us to know. However, I did want to point out one thing you mentioned regarding the NKJV:

The KJV was commissioned back in the early 1600's (1611 ?). Soon after, came the NKJV, after it's revisions.

The NKJV translation did not come about until 1982. So, the NKJV came out after quite a few translations had already arrived. Here is an article for reference:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_King_James_Version. Also, you can open to one of the first pages of a physical copy and confirm the original 1982 Copyright. It is a small thing, but I figured it is worth mentioning at least.

P.S. - You are correct about the 1611 date for the KJV.
