It's going to look a lot like the Panasonic DMC L1.

And the Leica Digilux.

Very cool!!! If it has a lens like the Digilux 2 had it will be potentially an incredible camera. I had a Digilux 2. Great pictures, just not very strong in anything higher than ISO400 and that sometimes seemed a stretch. Sensor crapped out on mine and Leica cut me deal on a Digilux 3. But anyway, I hope it does share some of the Digilux 2 characteristics. This is from my Leica Digilux 2;

Why we shouldn't put so much faith in rumor websites:

http://43rumors.com/very-important-message-large-sensor-compact-camera-rumor-changes-and-its-good-news/

Weeks ago we posted a rumor about a possible large sensor compact camera with fixed lens (Like the Sigma DP2 or Leica X1). This rumor came from two known sources and two new sources. Thatâ€™s why we posted it with a very high FT4-FT5 value. For 3-4 days I have been talking with many sources because we are receiving conflicting reports about that camera. And finally the clouds are gone and the sky is clear:

It seems that some of the trusted sources received pieces of WRONG informations. When we post a rumor with FT5 value we do that because a (trusted and reliable) source claims to have seen specs and/or the camera. That happened but apparently some of the sources made a BIG mistake. For obvious privacy reasons we canâ€™t tell you what happened but I hope you will understand that I did post the rumor with my most honest intentions. So what did happen? Their pieces of informations were correct but the combination of the single puzzle pieces have led to a wrong picture. The truth seems to be the following:

1) The LX5 is coming by the end of July and not by the end of August -> okâ€¦thatâ€™s even better
2) The compact camera with large sensor will be announced early September (and not now). The compact camera wonâ€™t have a fixed lens! It is a MFT camera. And yes, it is the most nice camera Panasonic ever produced (thatâ€™s subjectiveâ€¦but everybody told me so!)
3) There is still a surprise going to be announced by late Julyâ€¦after the LX5 announcement! We are working on it, but I can already tell you that a relative compact camera with advanced video capabilities is going to be released.

Sorry again for the confusion, but I hope you understand that these things can happen when you are dealing with rumors.

So basically either the Panasonic version of the E-PL1 or the GF-2.

The L1 is such a sexy camera

I would like a u4/3 24-70 f/2-2.8 high quality lens...
I had a 16-45 on my K20d as my prime lens... That is a very versatile range for candid, landscape, street, and family outings....And if f/2 is constant.. even better....
Maybe a high-bread RF/EFV similar to the Fuji X100... That would put a hurt on those X100 future sales with New Panasonic being released in December 2010! Especially if the price is similar
