Yes, Sony appears to get their entire digital camera division in the next 
month or two.  Makes me a bit nervous, because there's no guarantee that Sony 
will do anything other than produce a token lens or two, and rip the 
intellectual property out of the transferred company.

Oh well, maybe I can get some cheap lenses in the next few months as vendors 
dump stock? :)
