At $699 price range, i would be looking at the Canon G12 for versatility or even the SX40 if i need super long telephoto.

just be sure you are getting it for the right reasons especially since its price is close to G12 territory and i even havent touch on the various brands dslr that is also around that price.

But the S100 is really small & handy. Just had a try last night at Vivo.

Maybe wait for a while for the price to settle down.

In that case, do not try the G12. Seriously...just get the S100 and be happy with it. If you try, i can confirm till next year you will be undecided which one to buy.

Amazing at the amount of technology they cramped into the small body of the G12.

Well, Samsung has one camera around size of G12 that is f/1.8 for $5xx during show.

Then there is also the f/1.8 Olympus XZ1.

Depends on a lot of things like do you take self portraits?

Even Samsung has a solution.

actually G12 is great, except that it is not as compact. I guess sometime in life you have to take away some.
