I am one of the few old startrek devotees not looking forward to STIII.
The Enterprise represented for me the centerpiece of the whole of the
series.  As goes it, so goes Star Trek.
Remember the opening lines of the series:

   "...These are the voyages of the Starship Enterprise, it's 5 year mission..."

It doesn't say, 

   "...These are the voyages of Capt. Kirk and his buddies, one of whom is
       a Vulcan..."

I, maybe a bit set in my ways and of the generation of original network series
watchers, felt all of Kirk's emotion during the 'Enterprise walkaround' scene
in STI-TMP. Bit silly I guess, but I liked the way that STI so carefully
added to and upgraded the Enterprise.  It was The Enterprise vs. Vijer in
the ending scenes, etc.

It won't be Star Trek without the Enterprise.*sigh*
