Same high ISO capabilities that are seen in the D3. Most people assume it will go into the new alleged Nikon but it could fit in a new Leica. On the other hand, Kodak is proud of their new 5mp micro chip to go into cell phones; this would be a very large volume chip if adopted by the phone industry. For most of the world engineers are working overtime to come up with a single device to perform telephony, music, video, photo, PDA, and possibly basic computing/networking capabilities. If successful there are potential sales in the hundreds of millions of units. Sure beats sales numbers from Solms.
