    X100 is an amazing camera - especially if you like real manual controls and 35mm. It's pretty much the only manual style digital camera on the market sans Leica or the X-Pro 1. Has amazing low light, epicly good glass and a nice bright hi-tech viewfinder. I recently upgraded to the xpro1 but keep the x100 around because it's so small and fun to use.

    If going m43, I'd go for the OMD. The GF1 also remains as a classic and probably pretty cheap these days, you'll hear nothing but good things about the GF1 and the OMD. The issue with m43 is the micro sensor, so you'll struggle to get shallow DOF unless you buy into expensive voigtlander nokton lenses.
