Hmmm. From a marketing perspective I guess it would be unwise to declare
people who comment on one aspect of a product in the 'no target buyer'
categorie. The fact that they bother in itself should be considered a sign
of the contrary.

Since I almost drowned my e-1 last holiday (

weatherproofnes of the e-x camera's. So I consider myself a target buyer
anyway.

I found this post regarding the e-3 weight on dpreview interesting.
Allthought I do not share his conclusions, the analysis itself looks
plausible to me:

Enjoy anyway, and btw AG, I like your new site.
