Well looks like Nikon made it official today but too bad its only on DX. You can obtain the specs from Nikon website. So how will this impact us?
Point 1 - DX is here to stay since the D400 is rumored to be announced during Photokina 2009. What happens when they reach D600? maybe it will end there? who knows.
Point 2 - The DX crop factor would make this lens a 50mm lens and it should also be cheaper than the current 35mm f/2 lens since it should be cheaper to make DX lenses than FX ones.

Point 3 - Given the current market conditions Nikon may place more emphasis on DX segment because of costs and a larger target audience. This could also mean less focus on renewing FX primes.
