Here's a pilgrim taking it seriously:

The BSI-CMOS sensor has been around for awhile.  It appears (from
wikipedia) that Sony has done the most with it lately.

Comments in the DPreview forum have been almost 100% skeptical, except for
some occasional comments like "Hey you know, something like that could just
work."

What if Olympus released sketchy details of a REAL effort on the day when
it would get the most circulation as a rumor?  Could they be so clever?  An
inverse AFJ?
