Re memory cards, Oly are stuck with the proprietary xD and if anything comes
with only xD, the sales would be doomed. So they really have no choice for
the dual format.

Re the size, this should be what the 4/3 should have been.  It does look too
small, but the compact size has its own place in the market.  All other 4/3,
be it the body or the lenses, there is no size/weight advantage over the
competitions, except the sensor size is small.  Oly are an excellent
company, one of the traditional camera/precision device mfrs like Pentax and
Nikon.  Hope they survive (in camera biz).
