I do not think that they can hold up with these prices.
A Canon 10D with a well established system costs only 1600 USD. They
must go below this barrier to be able to sell enough in
September/October. Currently Olympus is alone out there with this open
system (I do not expect so much from Kodak or Fuji). And in October
other manufacturers might come with new models for the christmas season.
So the price will play definitely a very important role at the beginning
for the success of the 4/3rd system
