I'm kinda stuck cos I have the semi-pro DX lens range on a 300 body, so upgrading will cost me a fortune to get the same quality glass in the FX range.... upgrading the body isn't a problem, but to do the body and the lenses would cost me at least 10k for what cost me 4k for the DX kit O_o

One of the awesome things about the D800 is that, at 36MP(!?!), you can use your DX lenses in cropped mode and still be shooting at a respectable 15.4MP. As opposed to buying the much more expensive D4 that is coming out at only 16MP and will crop your DX lenses to like 8 MP.
For someone who has a bunch of great DX glass and doesn't want to have to replace it all at once the D800 is one hell of a good choice.
Congrats on the sick new camera. I'm jealous.
