D 7100 6 shot Raw Buffer IMO D400 still coming

The D7100 so near, but still so far...

Well it is preliminarily listed at about 60% of the introductory price of the D300 and about 67% of the current D600 price here in Sweden.

Seems to leave some pricing space for another DX camera?

Question is how Nikon perceive this segment of the market market and the Canon D7 Mk. II rumour/threat, which could also be seen as preempting??
