I thought that the belts were good for 100K miles or am I wrong? And is $600+ about right to change the belt? Should I shop around?

it shoudn't cost you that much by installing a new timing belt.browse over the parts on this site,
The recommended interval for the 2001 USA 2.0 Zetec is 120,000 miles.
I think I paid abotu $450, but not sure.
I have a 2000 Focus SE and mine went at around 102,000
And the price you were quoted was a rip-off, I paid about 1/2 of that price at Pep Boys. While you are at it, have them check the water pump, as it is driven off the timing belt -- If the pump was to go later on, you have to basically do a timing belt job again, with the exception of paying for a new belt.
