yes, the body is loosely based on the F80. but make your own judgement - go out there and compare the handling, the speed, the image quality and not to mention the lens range of the E-20 and of the D100
if the E20 is better suited to you - so be it, even with the E10 i have printed excellent 20x30 portraits (with lots of work that is) which people do not recognize as digital. the E20 is a nice camera, but slow in terms of capture speed, writing times ... and the iso-range is not really impressive. if i had to choose between E20, D60 and the D100 without knowing the price - i would definitely would go for nikon.
you also have another option : the Fuji S2 which is coming out soon and which in my opinion is wirth considering.

Hi,
He argue that the D100 is based on the F80, one of the worst AF camera Nikon
have ever made....
