Leica V-LUX 20

Any one here played around with one??

My point and shoot just died on me (I dropped it on a site visit) and planning to buy a new pocket camera... I looked at the PENs but frankly don't feel they are what I need.
I have an SLR and need a P&S
I like the Canon S90 (this one I just killed) and the G11 but feel the Leica is a much better product

Thought?

The Leica doesn't shoot RAW so I'd stick with one of the Canons.

Yeah but its got HD and GPS which are cool to have...
Just realized that the Panasonic Lumix DMC-ZS7 and the Leica are identical!!!
the ZS7 is about half the price

Yeah, that was going to be my next point. If you don't care about the brand name, the Panasonic is a much better choice for the money.

MexicoBlue has a reputation beyond repute

Love my G10 and G11 (and S90). Of them all, the G10 is probably my favorite. But the sirens' song of Leica is always calling my name. I fear there is an M9 and a couple of lenses in my near future . . .
