Full size crops? Thumbs look pretty good up to 6400 on my monitor.

i have one of these sweet babies, and its great. but badly lit shots are not the best way to do a test. and no, i don't think those are 100% crops.

If badly lit shots aren't the way to do these tests then what is? Surely you don't flick the camera up to ISO 25600 in broad daylight? If you have decent light then you don't really need high ISO do you?
I do agree that 100% tells you nothing though. You'd be hard pressed to see a difference between my Oly E30 and the 5DII at ISO3200 at that size - but I can assure you that up close it isn't really a pretty picture.

At least a tripod and mirror lock-up should be used: it's impossible to judge amount of detail and noise filtering if the images aren't sharp. The test should also be done with correct color balance (if you don't intend to shoot yellow pictures all the time)

You also aren't going to publish crap pictures with horrible white balance. And the idea is to use the camera in situations where noise was a problem before. Maybe an arena, or outside at night, or something else, or something in daylight that needs faster shutterspeeds

I am not saying it was very scientific test :-) Light was CF so white balance is set to fluorescent preset in LR. I just wanted to know what can I do without flash and tripod.

This camera is the bomb! I've had it since December and still get amazed using it in low light conditions.....
I like your unscientific test :)
