My answer to that question is to stick with DX. That ought to be your answer too, since you said your best shots were with a D200. DX will always lag FX on high-ISO noise (for the same pixel count) and perhaps in some other areas, but you know DX cameras will improve just as FX cameras have, and it appears that those things don't limit you anyway since your best shots were with your D200. So, why take on the extra size, weight, and expense of FX? What you should do is wait for the D400.
