Oh, I guess it's the GF3 onwards that ditched the hotshoe, good to know.

Yes correct

Do you know if the hack can be applied to the GF3? I could borrow my girlfriend's to play with in the meantime.

There is a video hack for the GF3, but personally I`ve never used a GF3, you will need to google it.

Also, are you able to add an external microphone (through a hack or otherwise)? I figure I shouldn't expect much for ~$100 for a GF2, but if ~$100 for a GF2 means no microphone and ~$250-350 for a GH2 means I have a camera I can grow into, that's worth considering.

No mIc input, you will need to use a separate sound recorder for this, there generally much better anyway.
