PS: I hope the Nex-7 review comes soon with the raw samples in that tool... I can't wait to compare it to A77 in 100% views.

Even for Nex-7, the higher pixel camera is going to look a lot noisier on pixel level. However, once you downsample 24 MP to 16 MP, the noise is pretty much same as that of 16 MP sensor. DPR already has the page comparing A77 and A55 at equal size

"What this means is that if you're an A55 user habitually making prints of a given size, the A77 will give you near-identical image quality in low light, high ISO situations. The extra pixels on its sensor won't appreciably increase the quality of the output you're used to, but they won't make things noticeably worse, either."
