Note that unlike the F5, it has an add-on motor drive, rather than one that is integral, and it doesn't have a removable prism - which "pro" Nikons have had since the F. I have to assume there're well thought out reasons for both of those changes, and taking the camera digital makes sense in that regard. There's also the fact that Nikon has put it's emphasis on speed and electronics, rather than sensor size, and having full-frame as an add-on option to an existing camera would make sense in that regard as well.
