After a month long teaser campaign Nikon released 10Megapixel D80, a successor to its 2004 blockbuster D70.

At $999 without lens, it doesnt excite me too much. Nikon D70 was a pathbreaker when it came out in 2004, 2 years later D80 just seem to be a lackluster update. I was expecting at least a Full Frame sensor - but looks like Nikon is commited to DX format with its APS sized sensors. Except for the 10Megapixel bump it still has almost same specs (and in some cases a step back from D70).

How does it compare to Nikon D70s? Here is a full spec table.
