The G9 is Wonderful.
I recently got this digicam from Amazon as a back up to my Canon EOS 5D for situations when I couldn't take it.
Its a great little camera and you shouldn't compare it to a DSLR, but as P&S it works well. RAW capability, 6x optical zoom, DSLR type controls, live histogram and manual focus make it wonderful.

Since it's essentially a G7 with a higher density sensor and RAW, most things about the G7 will be true with the G9.
I have a G7, and it works great for what I use it for (candid photos and hobby photography). I'd say it definitely packs a punch for its size. Some disadvantages I've seen, however, are noise at mid and high ISOs (400 and above), and holding the camera with one hand.
