Perhaps everywhere but Ebay, where the phrase "45mm voigtlander" returns no matches.

I think he meant the voigtlander nokton 40 f/1.4. Sure it too might have a bit more CA at f/2.8 than a lens made for 2.8... but it can do a heck of a lot more in terms of usability. Some folks like that <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Wink' /> Plus anyone wanting the cleanest image wanting to go for an APS-C is a bit beyond me.

And we must be talking about different things in general, because every non-Sony-E-mount lens in the world requires a roughly inch-long (~3cm long) adapter for the Nex, not just Nikon lenses.

That's not true. While the flange distances for the SLR mounts are long (e.g. ~42-55mm), the rangefinder mounts have much closer ones. E.g. Leica M mount is 27.80mm, which is a much thinner adapter than what you'd need for a Nikon F, relative to the thickness of the Nex body too.
