Should be here on Friday.

Now I need to sell my 300 and 330 before Mrs. Wave finds out.

This could be a problem... :)

Those Olympic people won't be happy that you've deserted them.

I'm not really - the Olympus camera according to those in the know is
totally based on this camera.

Do you think the 4/3 system is a good compromise between full sized SLRs and
the tiny compact camera CMOS?

We have to get away from 4/3rds being a "compromise" format. It's a
different format designed to be completely digital from soup to nuts.

Having said that, yes - I believe its almost ideally suited for this
type of camera and in fact, I think Olympus was waiting for a change
in processing technology from the git-go with 4/3rds to do exactly
this.

We'll see what happens.
