Can you confirm that it has a "lens eject" easy access feature to make lens
changing quick and easy - but that the button is too easy to depress accidently
so at least two lenses hit the concrete in the middle of a photo session? I've
heard this and found it difficult to believe a lock-out wouldn't be included in
the feature list.

And is there any truth the rumor of a purely black and white model at 16MP? I
hear even the lens coatings are different!
