Didn't the D800 just get best sensor on the market award or summat? And, 36mp! That's insane. Plus if you do want it for video work, then you can buy some cheap Ai-s lenses for it (which are still amazing quality).

DxO Mark just put it at the top of its sensor tree, yes.

Nikon really fucked up with that pricing blip on their new FX bodies; 10% extra is a big hike. I was considering selling two bodies and a lens or two and ponying up the rest for a D800, but now I will definitely have to wait at least until they drop that £200 in price.
