Nikon is way behind Canon and Fuji in not bringing out a full frame 
digital.  It's one way to lose market share and disappoint their loyal 
customers.

I am glad I did not accumulate much Nikon gear (unlike Leica stuffs, 
groan!) and so it will not be difficult for me to buy a Fuji Pro-S2 
to  make use of existing Nikkors or change over to Canon eventually. The 
former seems more appropriate. The Fuji has a better reputation than the 
slew of Nikon digital cameras that are being touted at the moment.
