I agree service is generally pretty fast with Canon CPS. I'm not NPS but I sent a D800 in to Nikon (California location) for focus adjustment and it seemed that they fixed the main problem. The turnaround was a few weeks IIRC.
The D750 will easily win at low ISOs for image flexibility, it has a tiltable LCD (frequently useful), and theoretically it's at least on par at high ISOs. The tradeoff is lack of PC port and no 1/8000ss. The current idea about the 5d3 is that the focus is more "precise" than previous Canon cameras (at least lower-end cameras, e.g. non-1-series). Not sure if it's really true or not, sometimes it precisely misses and sometimes it precisely hits for me. If that's precise, then yes it's more precise. It also hunts in low light a lot more for me and takes longer to lock on many occasions during receptions and getting ready (weddings) than my 5d2s. Otherwise, I might consider owning more than one 5d3...but it's IMO a crappy upgrade path for me and I'm waiting either to progress more toward Nikon or see a new Canon 5d with better dynamic range/more responsive AF/etc.)
If you already have a 5d2 (as I have), then obviously it's easier to stick with your same brand. Canon will probably be coming out with an update to their full frame cameras within about 1-1.5 years, not sure what Nikon will do when that happens since they just refreshed their cameras again so recently.
