I think given the price and more pro oriented market Fuji is aiming for with the XP1, they would be crazy to release the camera before it\'s ready. X100 is one thing but a problem riddled intro for this camera would not be tolerated - only Leica can get away with something like that.
Given some of the obvious similarities, the solving of issues with the X100 will benefit the smooth introduction of the X Pro1.
As far as I\'ve used the X100 up to 1.10, AF was still awful, unreliable, and would fail randomly even with the most conservative of settings and challenges. However other people seemed to have great luck so I don\'t know. I did try 3 copies.
Now this is a dedicated camera married to a single fixed lens. I imagine a variety of lenses plus zoom lenses would present Fuji with perhaps their Everest. But who knows, maybe we\'ll be pleasantly surprised.
