Panasonic LX3 reviews
The Panasonic LX3 was announced in the summer of 2008, two years after the announcement of the LX2. The LX3 got a lot of bonus points out of the gate for resisting the megapixel madness, and also for starting at 24mm wide. For frequent updates on the LX3, be sure to check the new LX3 diary.
NOTE: We have just corrected the url for the Ming Thein review. Thanks to the reader who pointed it out!

Thanks Alberto for the tip! It is in-stock about 30 minutes later as well. I am writing an in-stock alert post as we speak!

Perhaps the LX3 supply constraints are beginning to ease. I just got notice that my back-ordered LX3 has shipped from J&R. I ordered it on April 22. Moreover, they apparently honored the April 22 price of $430. J&R's current price is $500 (still back-ordered).
I now have two LX3's arriving next week. One from J&R and one from B&H. What to do? I suppose refuse delivery of the more expensive one...

That is good news/bad news. Is it too late to cancel one of them?

Amazon has 10 black units for $462.28 as of 9 pm June 17!

Thanks Albert! I posted it when they were four left, and in just a few more minutes later, they have sold-out again. Thanks for the alert!

I ordered a silver one from dell for $430, still hasn't arrived yet though, they are saying they will ship them within 1-2 weeks of order date.

It appears dealers have the LX-3 in stock now, selling for $500 or a bit less, both black and silver.
