After a long long wait Nikon have announced the eagerly anticipated  d800.
Full frame DSLR in a dwarf';s body.

Alas it's got a  36 MP sensor and max basic speed of 4 fps.
(You can raise that to 6 fps with extra $ or subterfuge).

No mention is made in the DPReview preview of noise performance. But,
unless Nikon have worked some utter magix (always possible) the
existing 3.5 year old D700 will be a better high ISO machine.

Lokks like I may have to start watching D700 prices :-)
