I <3 my M9. Although it's a bit big for the pocket as Rob says, compared to a 5Dii or equivalent full-frame, it's a fraction of the size and much easier to carry along. Take it with me almost everywhere.

Heard many good things about the G12, if you come to the March Surrey meet (not scheduled yet but I'm sure there will be one!) would you mind bringing it along?
@OP, I'd go for the Lumix just 'cos of the Leica optics (Vario-Elmar) on it. It's effectively the same camera as the Leica V-Lux 20 with a slightly better sensor. The Sony would've been a good competitor if they'd put a Zeiss Vario-Sonnar on there but from what I can see it's "just" a Sony OEM lens. Plus there's probably nonsense to do with memory stick on there while the Panny will almost certainly use an SD-card.
Wait for the DP-review, er, reviews to come out, but if you need to get something first go for the Lumix.

ive got the older verson myself - lx3 and been impressed with the results - leica lense etc and reviews all seem positive
not small enough to put in the pocket but a nice middle ground option for those who don't want the full on 'embarassing dad' slr job

....When you say "Surrey", do you mean the Jekyll&Hyde meet? I thought that was in Hampshire?
