D800 destroys the competition at DxO

I know it isn't the final word in camera rating, but the DxO test results are in, and the D800 easily takes the #1 spot. I also believe it safe to assume that the D800E will return even more impressive results. Nikon has managed to best all other digital cameras on the market including medium format offerings from Leaf, PhaseOne, and Hasselblad. This is an absolutely amazing piece of engineering/technology.

Feel free to discuss below. It will be interesting to see people reactions to this considering pretty much everyone dismissed it as a downgrade in image quality over its predecessor. Quickly approaching are the days where $30,000 medium format cameras are simply a status symbol and lack any actual advantages in image quality.
