Some observations from the press releases and brochures:
 -single SD slot (for space saving) -D4 like sensor, but a slower/cheaper shutter at 1/4000.
-only rechargable batteries or mains (no battery option like the D800)
-focusing screen: 100% not replacable, switchable grid, no optical focusing aids.
 -first chrome SLR camera in a long time, I wonder if it is painted plastic or real metal. -remote options: Wireless, MC-DC-2 style or tapered-screw-in remote (not AR-2 like the F and F2 etc.).
 -most old style (pre 1977) lenses can be used thanks to pop-up Ai coupling, like the F3 end F4 had. (sorry for F3AF and IX lens-owners).
Regards, Gilbert
