I don´t know whether the GX1 AF is better than the G3. However, comments and measurements in the "preview" by imaging resource indicate that the GX1 may be very fast indeed.

The question here is not how fast is the AF for a single shot. We already reached and passed "fast enough" AF for still shots, at least in recent micro4/3 systems with suitable lenses. Making even faster single shot AF in itself doesn't really provide more benefit any more. What we are looking at is one of the features where I'd still reach for a DSLR every time - tracking AF capability.
