Nope, that 235,000 pixel EVF is already old.  That's what's used on the 
Minolta A1.  The A2 just announced has a 922,000 pixel EVF.  Actually, 
I'm suspicious that the marketers figured out that they should multiply 
the pixel count by 3 so that the old one may be 705,000 new, inflated 
pixels.  In any event 922,000 is still a good increase.

I did think it interesting that when I first looked at the camera it 
looked like it had a rangefinder window.  You have to look very hard to 
find out that it has an EVF.  It's not mentioned in the press release 
features at all.  It's buried in the detailed specs.
