Quest To Acquire A Nikon D800

I have been reading the reviews, like what i see, a 36 megapixel full frame sensor DSLR and hoping to lay out the $quid for one soon. The primary problem, as always with a new Nikon is the supply and demand.

All of the top NYC camera stores , have them listed as a pre-order not yet in stock item, for $2995.00 for the D800, or $3265.00 for the D800E ( the de-anti-aliasing filter version ), which claims to be incredibly sharper, but one might get the moire pattern issue with finished images. However  as yet none of the reliable outlets have them. To my shock when I  ambled online to ebay, i found a number of USA based sellers who already physically have them in stock and prices are $4500 and higher, and soon to be owners are having bidding wars to get them NOW
Meanwhile D700 camera's can be gotten for as low as $2195 , and they too, are on back-order from Japan

The flip side to this coin also, is the sharper and more powerful the camera the more computer core memory, cpu, and graphics speed one must have ..oh what to do what to do
