Basic AF-S primes

Dear Nikon,

since you have invested on DX, with only a very recent couple of full frames, why forcing buyers of less expensive cameras to buy very, very expensive lenses, and why leaving the inexpensive primes (like THE 50mm F/1.8) to owners of very, very expensive cameras, and why your definition of standard lens=50mm continues to be related to the FX format even if the D3 and D700 were out only in 2008?

This does not make sense.

Please, PLEASE, put out some inexpensive AF-S standard primes for DX, a 28mm F/1.8, or something the Sigma 30mm F/1.4, but at Nikon level! Something to go on the D60 and on my D40, with matching price.

I would like to know why the software that goes with the cameras never includes a Linux version, only Mac and Windows.
Can Nikon be the first?
