Agreed 24mm would have been nicer but also more difficult to design.
I consider the viewfinder to be a fall-back for extreme situations. It will not be great fore sure but better than nothing (like on the LX5).
The manual zoom ring is nice.
What I don't like is the protruding lens with its dedicated lens cap. It's understandable from a design and quality perspective but as such it is probably not any more pocketable than a GF-3 with the upcoming X standard zoom.

That's the way I see it, a back up, but a nice one in terms of UI. It seems to have this x100 fashion overlay.
