Joe, I agree with you!! After I got my D1, the place I work at (Cabela's
Studio) got one too, I'm used to it already!! Between the D1 & Bibble
I'm set!! Well..... Not until the D1x is available & I get it:-)
But not for a while, I'll just wait, first for the bugs & then to have
enough $$$$ to afford it!!

Great question Ben!!
I've wondered about that for 2 years now!! The 2x3 chip is out
there,
why don't they use it??
Guys, you are making too much about the CCD chip size vs a 35mm
frame. I too worried about that very aspect of the camera. But
after six months and nearly 15K images (and now holding at about 1
dozen rolls of film in the same time!) I can tell you that it isn't a
problem. I am used to the image view and don't have any reservations
when i pick it up to shoot. I now have the feel of the camera and
can "see" in my mind what the camera will see before I place it to my
eye. The only place it becomes a problem is on the wide-angle lens
side, there I bought a Sigma 14mm lens and while like everyone else,
I would love a wider lens I find the 14mm wide enough to be happy.
In my mind I no longer convert the focal length back to standard 35mm
format, I just pickup a lens and shoot, it feel natural. FYI: I have
the 14mm Sigma, 20-35 Nikon f2.8, 24-120 Nikon, 60mm Nikon, 50mm F1.4
Nikon for low light, and a 80-200 Nikon 2.8 (not the S).
