The next version of the DX chip in the D90 is arriving soon in the form of the D300S.
Includes autofocus while recording.

23.6 x 15.8 mm 12 megapixel CMOS sensor with 720p at 24p.
Nothing special there on the surface. But I await the first reports.
Nikon it seems have not yet grasped the possibilities and potential offered by the GH1 style hybrid video / stills cameras.
"The D300S’s advanced D-Movie function benefits from a number of functional and technological advancements, including an external stereo microphone input enabling high-fidelity audio, plus in-camera movie editing. In Tripod mode, the D300S features contrast-detect AF.
Experimenting with Nikon’s selection of finest-quality NIKKOR interchangeable lenses — from ultra-wide-angle and fisheye to super-telephoto – will enhance the dramatic impact of HD video. What’s more, the camera’s versatile Picture Control adjustment options let you modify the tone and colour of HD video clips with remarkable ease."
