I'm not sure if there's any confusion here, but this

aimed at you.
My response when seeing the EX2F to S100 comparison thread was this:
"This particular review is so poor that it has me mystified, as I have seen other much better examples, so I am waiting for a final version FW camera to be tested by a reputable site."
I did notice, it was a measured response, not accusatory or finger pointing. Unlike others.
So I would say that I tend to agree with Billx08 that these examples are so poor that I smell a rat.
You smell a rat, sure, me too, but you didn't go on to flame the poster about it like Bollox08 did. That is my ongoing point here. "Don't shoot the messenger".
If the examples are just as bad when a quality review is done to a production camera then i will say that it is very bad and I would not recommend to anyone to buy it. But as someone else has already said, for a company to release an upgrade of the EX1 that did not at least equal its performance would be sales suicide. We are already seeing people in the pana forum saying that the LX7 may not be as good as the LX5, but I would wait and see production model tests.
Totally agree 100% And I never said otherwise.
While we are on conspiracy theories, we have already seen that alternate brand trolls are entering forums and causing disruption against their competitors, so it is conceivable that company run reviews sites be set up to give competitors a poor review. Anything seems to go in this industry now that it has got tough, not to mention
Again, I'm with you on this one and never said anything different.
that it is good policy to not believe anything you see on the internet.
Yeah, good one. This actually comes back to my original point.
