I must say that if it has a variable magnification viewfinder of some sort,
and ttl metering, it would be very tempting to get one with an 85 f 2 and
105 2.5...The problem, at this point, would be the price - What will be
interesting to see is if they come out with a non-collector's version after
the initial hoopla...

Luc,
The prediction seems to be at least in part correct.  Nikon just states that
"it is now being prepared".  They also state that it is made "as close to
the original S3 as possible with modern technology and quality control".
Thus, it may have no TTL meter.  It will be sold with a Nikkor-S 50/1.4
lens.
