Overall it looks like a mixed blessing. Nice and small, good design layout, in-body IS, but a mediocre LCD display (inferior to the G1's 460k screen) and the AF is quite slow (unlike the G1's). I'd strongly suggest looking at the slightly larger G1 instead given the identical cos (both are $799USD with the small kit lens).
