Jogiba...I think you are right, and my only problem with any of the mirrorless cameras with interchangeable lenses is that once you mount a lens, they are no longer all that small. Also, you are back to having all those choices, and that means buying all those lenses!
Maybe if there was a tiny zoom for them......?
The X10 with 28-112 is why I didn't buy the X100. I need some zoom room!
When you are forced to shoot with the lens on the camera, for me it must be a zoom, and with the X10, it is very good glass....and fast too!
I would love to see a X10 replacement with a little larger sensor, as long as it had a similar zoom lens with the same high quality glass. Maybe it is coming?
It's no secret that I love my X10, but I'm not ignorant of the fact that there are many other great small cameras out there, and most all of them share the same ability I am speaking of here......ease of use and a lack of intimidation to your subjects. If they fit in your shirt or jacket pocket, you will find yourself using them all the time, which for me means more shooting pleasure and fun, and sometimes even a decent and worthy shot!
Best Regards!
If any of you guys have small camera shots you really like, just post them here.....I love viewing other peoples photos...from any camera!
A couple of my favorites....

Walking around the city with a small camera is so easy...nothing else to carry!

And if you run across a pretty girl, even if she is a little shy, your small camera won't scare her off!
