Kind of interesting news, as it was always a little Wonky that there was little connection between the division putting out the AF100 and the GH series. In most companies I would be worried about the Pro Division losing ground to more consumer oriented products (as people feel Apple as being doing, for instance), but since we've had so much power come out of the consumer division I find it exciting.

Hmm sounds like they already merged them. :-) And it is just consumer camcorders part. Or I did not understand it.
Looks like the entire company is restructuring...

One thing I see and remember referencing it is Panasonic & Fujitsu alliance on LSI.
Btw, funnies thing here is that I had been strong proponent of such move for long time :-) Hope it'll have some effect.
At least now it is clear reasons of movements in US Pro division management.
Panasonic guys could finally PM to Vitaliy access codes to easily decrypt and encrypt their firmwares.... that would raise the selling rates :-)
I will definitely not buy GH3 or LX7 before they're hacked. 30min limit is nothing but insulting someone who spends more than 1k to buy a camera.
