New camera coming- Nikon D600

http://nikonrumors.com/2012/05/10/nikon-d600-probability-now-at-80.aspx/

This camera could prove to be a (fairly) low cost, low light monster from Nikon...if the specs are correct, which as far as MP count goes..I believe it will be. The D800 is the super high resolution camera, the D600 is looking to be more of a new line for Nikon. Entry level full frame. The 24MP full frame sensor and new Expeed processing just might make this thing the lower budget low light king. I know many will be getting the BMC- it looks like a very awesome camera with an incredible price point for all they include.
But for those who love Nikon lenses, the Nikon look and looking for full frame at closer to $2000 (maybe even below).........The D600 is looking mighty sweet.
 
full frame at $2000 is very compelling, but I'd expect this D600 to still have aliasing/moire, so it may not be much of an upgrade from a 5D2 (which, by the way, is similarly priced)
we'll see...
 
Nikon rumors now has it at 80% for early Fall and at/near $1500
If it has advanced Video features like 1080P at 6fps for 30 minutes
and accurate FullTime AutoFocus.
Then I would buy 2.
 
Looks like a cross between a D7000 and D800
Slightly heavier, probably to accommodate a FX mirror box.
