Just posted! Canon PowerShot G3 review - I don't know, high noise and stronger artifacts than the competition, I don't think that sounds like a hit. But of course it will probably get hyped anyway, because it's a Canon digicam and those have to be good.
Interestingly, everything about the Digilux 1 got scathing reviews precisely because of problems that aren't entirely unlike those of the G3 (ok, instead of chromatic aberration the Digilux 1 has the nice impressionism filter in out-of-focus areas, but the noise is high in both) has gotten devastating reviews.
