Nikon D700x Rumor: Alleged Nikon Roadmap says Oct 15th

A user on a Czech forum (here via NikonRumors.com) has posted what he claims may be from a 37 page Nikon document outlining Nikons product release roadmap for 2009-2010.

Here is what it says about the Nikon D700x:

Released October 15th Nikon D700x - differences from the D700: effective pixels: 24.5 million ... Image Sensor Cleaning, Image Dust Off reference data .... [S] 6.048 x 4.032 Continuous high-speed mode: 5 fps without batterygripu, 6.5 fps with batterygripem 1 Release mode addition: Self-timer + MUP 2200-pixel RGB sensor L CD monitor: 920 to-dot, 2.9-inch, Enhanced contrast detect AF Enhanced phase detect AF: new 2,200-pixel RGB sensor c ooperates with 3D Tracking, Auto-Area AF-C is dynamic area, flashing auxiliary section plus focusing direction "display in the viewfinder with the" user-control "change of direction Movie - mode: 1920 * 1080 at 24 fps Quicktime MOV, H.264 codec

Our Take:

Hogan says a "reliable source" claims that the D700x may be here before November, but 6.5 f.p.s. with grip? That's faster than the D3x - no way, no how - the D700x will have less processing power than the D3x, not more.

Update:The same poster posted this further down the thread when someone asked him to produce the document, basically saying he found out it was a 'little joke' after spending 3 hours translating it (via Google Translate):

The answer came to me by mail:

• I idiot when I disclose
• It's little joke allegedly staff with responsibilities for their beloved colleagues and supervisors with shipper from the center
• So it's supposedly fancy, but had to give mad work was concerned about his colleagues were extremely happy and very creative. And from me therefore I did laugh and I to 3 hours to translate.
