Going to be tough for them to address this, seeing as they have
nothing above 12 megapixels until you hit $8000. The D90 is long in
the tooth, but how do you bring out something with 15-20 megapixels
when your pro bodies don't?

Assumes more megapixels matter. They don't.

Sure they do. If they didn't, we'd be back at 1.3 megapixels.

Let him have his fantasy. More megapixels is the only area where a DSLR can
barely improve, now that many P&S cameras are exceeding DSLR capabilities
in all other ways.
