G1 & G3 are still look pretty big to me.
Id be more interested in the something like the size of the GF3 or Sony NEX
My interest was highly piqued by the NEX series and its larger APS-C sensor, but high price, few lenses, and reports of poor interface left me thinking "meh."
IMHO, even the crude 1st-gen EVF in the G1 is pretty acceptable. I'm pretty sure the G3 EVF is going to be great.
G3 3.29 x 4.54 x 1.84 / 11.84 oz
GF3 4.24 x 2.64 x 1.2 / 7.94 oz
