I don't want to lose that feeling, but a fully featured E-410 would be tempting. Having a slightly bigger body helps in other ways though - even a 50-200mm doesn't balance that well on an E-400. The fast f/2's would likely be even more silly on an E-400. Maybe I just need to work my arm muscles a bit in preparation for a beefed-up E-X. Only a month or so to wait and see what materialises. I've said it before and I'll say it again - I think this will be a signifiant year for the 4:3rds standard.

I think so too.. But I must say one thing I have clearly learned- I can let others have the "big heavy" equipment if that makes them feel better (not referring to you at all, you obviously understand this). "Invisible" equipment is the best. An equipment I can put in a small bag and carry anywhere without thinking "this weights so much" is the best to me.
That said, the stuff I just posted on E-3 is sure exciting.. so.. I am not rulling out an E-3, but an e-410 that is water resistant would certainly get my look.
