I think you nailed it. The G1X is nothing more than what Canon could and should have done years ago. Looks like Canon is now trying to play catch up to Fuji and has taken all of the attention. Next up, their XS-1 and just going to keep it going.

I am a huge fan of your cameras and currently own a 5D2, 7D, and G11. I also have a 1D-X on preorder. I never bought the G12 because it did not appear to be a huge step up from the G11 and rececently I picked up the X10 finally to replace it. At the time I was a bit worried that Canon would release some 'supercompact' in the G12 space that would make me regret picking up the X10.
After the news on the GX1 today, I no longer regret my choice. From the specs the X10 still appears superior in almost every way.
When I was growing up I lived in the same town as Eastman Kodak. Many of my friends' parents worked there and we used to tour the factory every year as kids. It is very sad that due to management oversight they will likely no longer exist by the end of the year.
Please wake up and look at what your competition is doing out there. Do not become another Kodak.
