Anyone looking at the Olympus forum on dpreview will probably know I
bought one last week in a moment of weakness. I promised I'd wait for a
full review rather than play the 'early adopter lottery'.

Bottom line is that it takes perfectly acceptable pictures and has a
good quality EVF and (especially LCD). Focus speed isn't very good, but
that's nothing new on this kind of camera. Movie mode quality is fine
but the audio's poor quality, sadly (for those of us who care).

I recommend waiting for more thorough reviews before buying.

Isn't this a plague of this particular model? Many people are interested and
many want to buy it, but for some reason they won't admit openly they are so
interested.

It's predecessor, the C-2100 UZ (which I happen to own), was also plagued by
poor audio quality in movie mode. It's a shame Oly haven't been able to
improve this on the new model.

Thanks for your info anyway. I appreciate it, but I'm afraid nothing can
stop me from buying this camera. Call me crazy, but I'm even contemplating
selling the whole of my old OM equipment to get the money. Worse is, I have
even recommended the camera to a good friend of mine, so time will tell if
he's still my friend in a couple of months. :-))
