All a G17 would need to be a great seller would be the features of the G16 plus modestly greater optical zoom, slightly higher battery runtime, modestly reduced noise in the iso 320-1600 range via improved sensor or faster lens, mildly more video features, and better integration/support for raw format in the firmware (remove bugs/limitations with jpeg+raw mode, maybe have an additional mode to custom process raw files in camera).  On a day to day basis, this is all that gets in my way with the G15.  G16 seems to be an improved G15 that focuses on fps + jpg engine + video...which is fine, but isn't really enough to justify an upgrade.
