G12

My wife just got herself one of those Canon G10's- amazing little gizmos! Now why can't they come up with a G12 that has a four thirds sensor (double the price), and a coupled rangefinder- triple it. Think of it- a slightly larger G10 (perfect size) with the aforementioned specs, and understandably smaller zoom range (hopefully leaning to the WA), or primes- for say... $1,250.

It's not even a question of technical feasibility anymore, the only question being- would it sell? I'm certainly not the first to propose the above (or similar). Not only would professionals flock to it, it would undoubtedly be the "it" camera to have with all its modern digital/retro cool! And would certainly solve this conundrum...
