Where is our LX3 successor?

The Panasonic LX3

Over one month ago one of our trusted sources told us that Panasonic should announce the Panasonic LX3 successor. The Panasonic UK teaser made us believe that Panasonic would announce that camera along the Panasonic G1 successor. As we all have seen this didn’t happen. We don’t know yet when the LX3 successor will come.

Anyway we found this inside the dpreview forum:
According to “Mk7” (a dpreview forum user) the “Panasonic LX4 is coming this week” and it will come with a new “BSI CMOS” sensor.
This is a very unreliable source but it could have some sense if you consider that the japanese CP+ show starts on March 11…

I ask my sources to tell me if they know something :)
