Agreed, the g9x looks to be the true replacement for the s series. I haven't compared sizes yet, but I'll trade some light for a more pocketable body!

Me as well. Still getting f2 wide and significantly more versatile with the 1" sensor and 20mp.

Won't be great for portrait bokeh, but neither was the s120.

Rumored size of g9x
98 x 58 x 31mm 209g (battery?)

S120
100 x 59 x 29 mm 217g (w/battery)

Whoa, so this is going to be almost same size as the S120?  I have hung on to the original RX100 for years now because every new 1 inch sensor compact has gotten larger and larger.

Plus I want fast lenses on these cameras not for portrait bokeh, which I find to be fairly lacking on any 1 inch sensor camera anyways, but rather for low light performance.  The f/2 here coupled with IS and the 1 inch sensor should be fine.
