Wow! 
At that precipitous rate of depreciation I might be able to afford one in 24-36 
months, but even then I probably wouldn't absent a signifigant personal 
windfall. There are lovely reasons to want, even lust for one, but I like to 
indulge my sports & telephoto shooting with an slr and the S2 just doesn't have 
the fps I desire nor the fast af I lust for nor thepremium long af lenses I 
desire. 

Yet, it is still such an epic temptation. 

Please-Keep us informed on developments in this area if you don't mind,
