I think they've all been caught with their pants down.  The world has 
shifted fairly rapidly from 4:3 towards and to 16:9 for HD.  The 
decreased relative screen height has brought even more pressure from the 
horizontal toolbars.  I wonder if Olympus would still have produced a 
4:3 format given what's happened to display screens since.  Even 3:2 is 
narrow compared to HD.
