Just so you know your not alone I also experience this same thing.  I get 
the shimmy between 70 and 80.  I have rotated the tires and had them 
balanced off the car with no luck.  My next step was to take it to the shop 
because I figure there must be something wrong with some part of the 
suspension.  I would love to know the solution.
