I think what I'd want instead is a separate pocket projector that I could plug an sd card into (among other inputs) and look at the pictures that way. I think this is one of those areas that two separate devices can do better than one. What I hope this does is move the technology along to where a less expensive (<$100) pocket projecter is a possibility. #nikons100pj
That Kebab doesn't look so hot (not the picture, the food!)... You need to visit Dearborn I think.
The number one downside is that the better the food the less likely they are to have beer, wine, or booze. That's why I normally go for lunch or carry out only.
There used to be a descent spot (not the best, but not too bad) where you could drink, but the guy was sending money to Hezbollah and fled the country at which point the Feds seized the franchise...

@nutbastard: I think he's going for more of the artsy element of this idea, and less of the creeper element, unlike body paint guy the other day #fredlebain

I've looked into a couple of the smaller ones, and seriously thought about the E-P1, but then heard the GF1 would arrive soon. Both the E-P1 and the GF1 suffered from something I thought was an obvious oversight: Lack of a hotshoe flash and viewfinder support at the same time. I also found the EVF lacked necessary resolution to rival an optical VF, and I could not get used to relying on the LCD. It's a very odd standard, definitly not as versatile as I had been led to believe. #olympusep2
@Lizard_King: I definitely agree with the optical viewfinder as an important feature that is lacking. When I heard Olympus was already working on an E-P2 I hoped for one, but alas, not yet.
Don't both these 4/3 cameras have a hot shoe right on top though? While a flash doesn't come with it, you could always buy one separately. (please correct me if I'm wrong) #olympusep2
@James Philip: The EP1 and 2 and the GF1 all have hotshoe, and while the EP2 and GF1 have an electronic viewfinder, it covers the hotshoe. I say covers because I haven't gotten my hands on the EVF modules yet to see if they do interface with the hotshoe as the GF1 has a port in back of the hotshoe for EVF mounting. I'm guessing that the EVF makes no electrical connection to the hotshoe, but again, that is a guess.
One point to note, the m4/3 standard does not allow for an optical viewfinder - it must be electronic. That being said, I'm gonna punch the next person to tout Live View as a feature on the m4/3 cameras - it is necessary, not a feature.
Honestly, I like the comparison to rangefinder cameras - and hate it when these cameras are listed as if they have all of the features of an SLR in a smaller case. I'd think that most of the consumers purchasing this would already have an SLR. I might actually get a GF1, but would prefer to have electronic viewfinder and hotshoe flash at the same time. #olympusep2

Sounded more like a response to GF1 than a refresh, but the faster these beauties advance, the better!
I'm in between now... viewfinder is a must for me, and now both have it.
I see movie recording also got a manual shutter/apperture too.
Flash could be useful but not that important.
And there's the in body IS... #olympusep2
