I noticed that the new G9 compact is even smaller and lighter than the Sony RX100! Too bad it is slightly slower and has a little less range,

True but it seems to completely rely on the toucscreen for control. Then the difference is very small especially when compared to the original Rx100

but even so, this is one extremely pocketable camera. Might make some switch?

I don't think many will switch. Rx100 users tend to be advanced. And they don't want even less control. However it can be a hit for smartphone upgraders when marketed well. It will be extremely simple to use and the 20.2 mp Sony sensor is excellent.
