A camera you will take with you is the one to buy. I've got a little $150 canon (sd1200) that takes fantastic photos, and it's small enough to carry all the time. My DSLR with fast glass rarely gets taken out, though it does take marginally better pictures.
Spend the extra 850 on a DSLR for quality stuff, but I bet you'll take more photos with the P&S.
- I have the sd1200 too and it's surprisingly good. better than the new versionTungsten

Monnom,
that's why micro four thirds cameras are amazing!! :D
and if that's too big I agree, something like the canon s90, lumix lx3 or canon g11 are great cameras.Too many good photo oppertunities are missed becuase of not wanting to lug around heavy gear.
My gf1 and apex 60 case are a bit bigger than an average mans fist (behave).
so I carry all the time, muggers dream!
- then stop being s sissy and just carry a dslr. mcro 4/3 still doesn't have the same size sensor as a dslr. canon s90 is nice tho.pango

Leica D-Lux 4... It's an amazing camera - don't let the Panasonic Lumix people sway you, they are different in some subtle but important ways.

Pango - "then stop being s sissy and just carry a dslr. mcro 4/3 still doesn't have the same size sensor as a dslr."
What's your point? So what if the sensor size is not the same. What does that matter as long as long as it produces pictures that are equal in quality, which it does.
The epl1 does compare to dslr's of equal price in terms of noise and sharpness. Not in autofocus speed or continuous shooting.
the sensor is only important if you want the 1.6 crop factor, which judging by your post is not what you're concerned with.
