I'm astonished that Amazon believes that I own this device. I have, however, been searching diligently for information on this very subject. The best estimate/guess for general release is perhaps the middle of November. Apparently the W700 has experienced limited release in just a few major markets. The surprising element to me is, considering the vast number of articles previewing this and similar devices (all touting an Oct. 26th release), is the silence regarding their absence in the marketplace.

No, but you might join the Dpreview.com Panasonic Talk Forum. If anyone knows, someone there will.

Unfortunately the CF-53SJCZYLM is End-of-Life and out of production. While you may be able to find a few around they will no longer be manufactured by Panasonic. The current model available is CF-532JCZYCM which ToughRuggedLaptops has in stock and can custom configure to your needs (extra RAM, SSD drive, 4G LTE, Windows 7/8 64-bit). Feel free to message us directly and we'd be more than happy to help you out! Thank you!

Good question! I've been watching since April when my 2nd G7 stopped working correctly. It's time for something new, and this looks like it, but I'm not buying without at least some other user reviews to read first.

Last time I searched for a release date, they said March 31st is when Fuji is supposed to release this product.. I'll probably be happy with anything as I had the Fuji S700 so this is a big upgrade for me.. I'm waiting patiently..

Yes , it will work, but Panasonic released new firmware to optimize the use of these lenses starting with the camera body GF2 and there on but not for GF1. This does not mean that it can not be used. To see the functions that You will be missing read this article of DPreviews on this link http://www.dpreview.com/news/2011/8/29/panasonicfirmware . I have this lens on a G3 and hardly ever pay attention to these functions so I would not mind if I did not have them.

I'm with you on the Panasonic, but they are really hard to find right now. I did pick up an open-box EA18K from Fry's Electronics for $170, but it turned out to be a lemon (endless re-boot cycles when plugged in). The reviewer on Cnet compared the Panasonic and Toshiba side-by-side and the Panny came out way on top. Newegg expects a shipment next week, so I'll wait for that (at $169).While I had the Panasonic manual in my hand I did read where it says any incoming 16:9 contend will get recorded at 4:3 with the widescreen compressed. I don't expect it to look nearly as nice as the original when played back stretched, but whatever.Hey, thanks for the reply. I'm with you on the Panasonic, but they are really hard to find right now.

I'm talking about the Gh2 also. I've had mine since Christmas. Amazon has had them off & on for a while now. It's a great camera. Wish I could figure out how to use everything on it. I guess in time:-)

I called Panasonic yesterday and they said it will be released very shortly (2 days to 2 weeks). They are also mailing me the firmware. I guess TV can automatically pick up the update if it is connected.

I'd wait till April or May, that's when the new 2011 models will be coming out. The VT25 does look real awesome but its bezel is distracting. I do not own it myself but I've been researching this model very much, including having made Fry's hookup different things to it, like Blu-rays and a PS3 while in 3D. Picture is just awesome and a lot better than the ultra thin LEDLCD from Samsung right next to it. I know the 2011 will be better, as far as quality there isn't much to improve. Well, they are improving the whole look, and the 3D aspect portion.

I was wondering that myself. I pre-ordered this one about a month ago (at that time it was a ridiculous $319.99) and I'm trying to be patient as I wait. I e-mailed them, noting that Vizio had them available now, and they said there is no known release date for Amazon. If anyone knows when it will be available it'd certainly help ease my anticipation

You're in luck then! The 16GB version should be out in April. Longer battery life and a slightly bigger screen. Can't wait. If only they put gapless back like the 808 :((((

I don't think it's been released yet. I bought this about 2 months ago now, and like you, it was listed as Out of Stock at the time. Anyway, reading over at Logitech's site, it looks like these were supposed to have been out in May, but obviously that hasn't happened. I can't find an official answer anywhere as to when we can actually expect to see this released.

Any idea when the G14 will be out? I may even wait for the G15. That one is going to be even better!

I sent an email to Sanyo USA asking the same question. Their reply was late March, early June. Their reason was because they didn't want to undercut the HD1010 sales.
