Edit: Updated with new Hands On Comparisons Post Release:
With the launch of the new model coming in less than 48 hours, I thought it would be time for an OT. I will do my best to update the F.A.Q. section and the OP to clear up any questions. I also have two of them coming next day air from Japan so I should have detailed unboxing/videos on Monday to add.

F.A.Q.
Q: Does it have an OLED screen?

Q: is it confirmed you can use the 1GB built in memory additionally to their memory cards?
