New model codenamed E-A1 (final marketing name likely to be different) has
an OPL slated for early November and to be on your retail outlet's shelves
by June-July 2009. Final prototypes will be available around
November/December this year. Believe me, it is a very nice camera and I have
already placed an order for one.
E-4 currently under development already. E-5 in planning stages.
