The best price we've seen cheaper (around 20% less)
really ?????????????????
Not the 5D mark ii
However, improving the amount of noise in an image in post is much more difficult.
For me personally, image quality at high ISO is the only important factor, because most DSLR's image quality at ISO 100 exceed my needs, but most fall short at high ISO which is needed to shoot in low light.
The D700 destroys the 550D at high ISO, I don't see how you can even compare them. Can you link to specific images where you think the 550D is ahead of the D700?
But in the other test it doesn´t look like that D700 has better image quality....more to the contrary
Look here: http://pixinfo.com/en/articles/nikon_d700_vs_canon_eos_5d/
And for 5D mark II look here:

In other comparsion you can see, that D700 is like low-entry face to face with eos 550D.
Canon eos 550D has better noise, sharpnes, color, everithyng.
Look here: http://www.imaging-resource.com/IMCOMP/COMPS01.HTM
I just skimmed it, but this quote, "But while the D700 is delivering preferable results to the EOS 5D overall...", and the sample images seem to indicate the D700 has a slight advantage.
They're both clearly incredible cameras, with great image quality at high ISO, but I think its generally accepted that the D700 outperforms the 5D at high iso.
Contrary is the case,
look on this comparsion:
