Yeah the Oylmpus is cool, but i don't really wanna spend over 1k on it. If i did, i'd buy the Lumix GF1, well, id probably save my pennies and buy the Leica X1 actually.
I want a good walk around camera. If i wanted to swap lenses, i'd take the SLR. Which is precisely what i can't be bothered doing.

I love my G9. But if you're looking for a great little pocket cam, check out the new Canon Powershot S90. This is assuming you already own and are comfortable with a DSLR. Full manual control, RAW files, pocketable. CHEAP!! Really sweet.

Canon makes my favorite compact camera.. They make everything in house, from the optics to the firmware, so everything is in harmony with each other. I've used all of the major brands by now and Canon has been the fastest.
Hell, I've even considered switching over my dSLR from Nikon to Canon just because of how well my compact Canon SD870is has performed.

The S90 looks sweet, and its their response to the LX3. And they are both the same price.
