Panasonic LX3 - currently my top choice

Leica DLUX4 - all back ordered

Olympus EP1 4/3 - on my list but I have not had time to research it.

Anything I am missing?
If you're considering the Olympus E-P1, the new Panasonic GF1 is a closer equivalent than the LX3. Personally, I think they're both pretty big for a pocket, but they're nearly identical in size.
