I don't believe that is true at all. Even before gapless sensors, the gaps were small. With gapless sensors, it seems MP seems even less relevant to SNR.

If Nikon comes out with a 36mp full frame camera with an autofocus as good as the D700 has ad it costs < $3000, it will be difficult not to switch.
