You'd expect the brand recognition to pull in some buyers and some of the technology is cool, but I just don't see how it can succeed. Personally, for this purpose (decent pictures / small size) I'd choose an S100 over any of these. Then a EP-3. Then perhaps a NEX-5 (though the NEX-7 is definitely awesome). Then, well, I guess the bottom line is I'd choose most any of the competition over this. Kinda sad, really.

I've tossed all small sensor compacts out of my list of main cameras. There're just too many compromises with them. Like you said, a high-compromise camera doesn't make much sense.
Sony's NEX-7 really looks good for the serious photographer. I am hoping Panasonic does something good with the GH3. The GH series always had a better sensor than the other Micro Four Thirds cameras in its very short history, and I hope it continues.
