I think we basically agree - although it will ultimately be interesting
to see the real differences, if any, between the 5mgp output and 6.
Also, from everything I've seen, the street price of the E-1 body will
be about $1600, and that's awfully close to the D10 - and I think we
will see that the E-1 is more solid than the 10D.

I hope everyone will think that way then Olympus can get a good business
:-) The most critical problem I see is 5MP while all the others are 6MP.
I'm pretty sure I will invest on the E-system (may not be E-1) but not
at the price you mentioned. My 10D is $1500 and the features are every
bit as good or better than the E-1.
