You can have my gun, but you'll have to pry my dslr from my cold,
dead, hands.
DSLRs will disappear eventually, all tech changes. But to claim that they
can replace them now? Kinda silly...

What did photographers used to say, just a few years back about
film cameras versus digital?

It seems that about half of the argument against P&S cameras is
justified, and half of the argument is just a defensive posture of
the inevitable.

I rather suspect that a good 10mp P&S makes a better picture than older
DSLRs of only a few years ago. At some point, most people will probably
go with the smaller, lighter, option.
