24.4 megapixel Nikon D3X DSLR in the works?

The reference includes a list of resolutions available to the upcoming shooter, and it’s apparently set to max out at a potentially Higgs Boson-inducing 24.4 megapixels. Word has it that that sensor is likely a variant of the megapixel monster behind

Sony’s upcoming A900, but since that is all being extrapolated from a few numbers hidden in some firmware, we’re going to try not to get too ahead of ourselves at that point.
