Panasonic FZ-40?

I presume now that since the FZ-30 has been discontinued that the successor FZ-40 will be out soon. Any specs on this one?

I hypotherise from a marketing perspective that any FZ-30 replacement would be on a collision course with a LC1 replacement.

Given an FZ-30 replacement would be spec'd up with bigger sensor/better lens then it's right in LC1 territory.

However the marketing boys will put a new slant on anything.

Excited. I really dig the FZ series. In fact I've been using an early Panny to do some street work... I still like Olympus better but this works out too!
