I have also ordered the 50mm f1.4 afs at the old price, but not sure whether this will be honoured by the seller, as it is showing as out of stock.

Who would buy anything now until FX is the standard sensor size anyway? FX is the future and nobody can deny it unless they have jammed their head in the sand. When the D90 replacement comes - with FX sensor and I know this on good authority - it will whip the @ss of the D700 so why bother with a D700 at an increased price now? - within 24 months there will be a better camera at 50% of the cost and as we will still be just climbing out of this economic mess, that 50% matters. DX is finished... FX now rules... FX is the future. Concentrate on improving your photography rather than having the shiny new toy - I think a lot of people would benefit from that. There are perhaps a few decent photographers on here but room for improvement for a lot of others I think. This is all irrelevant.
