Both Canon and Nikon have been pretty good at adding a few unnecessary changes to an existing camera and putting it on the market as a hot new commodity. Unfortunately, Nikon doesn't have this luxury much longer. If they want to prevent falling any further behind Canon, they need to resist the urge to "upgrade" existing cameras and put the money into heavy R&D.
Placing this camera on the market at this point is kind of like Dodge hoping to sell more of those station wagons just by putting in bigger engines.
