Yes yes.. waiting!! *chanting
I would like to contribute more GR poison lol 
I brought the GR to Japan and also bought the GH3 + GW3 in Japan (for only $273 combined!!!!) on a whim despite the fact I have never worked with 21mm extensively before, cos it's just so cheap there..... turns out this combo is still fairly small and portable and I got quite addicted to it. Here are some pictures with the GR, with and without the GW3..... From my on-going series Tokyo Dreaming
GR, Sunrise over Pacific Ocean
Shibuya Scramble at Sunset, GR with GW3, Shibuya Crossing, Tokyo
Swimming Penguins, GR, Sumida Aquarium, Tokyo
Girl with Turtle, GR, Sumida Aquarium, Tokyo
GR, Hair Light, Shibuya Crossing, Tokyo

More GR poison...
Here's how the combo of GR + GW3 looks like:
The GW3 is impressive sharp and I didn't notice too much degradation of image quality (but i'm fairly non critical to be honest). Here's a sample:
At 100% crop I can count the number of floors of each building - basically it's a super impressive detailed picture, despite the fact I'm shooting through somewhat dirty glass of the Tokyo Skytree.
Some touristy snaps.....
GR, Statue of Liberty with Rainbow Bridge, Odaiba, Tokyo
ISO 3200 allowed me to handhold this shot, and the results are still impressively clean... (certainly cleaner than my M9 lol...)
Daido Moriyama Exhibition at 916 gallery, GR
Very happy to be able to see this print in person by Daido Moriyama, to me the patron saint of Ricoh cameras! Admittedly I went to the bars at the Shinjuku golden gai area to see if I can catch a glimpse of him, but without knowing the exact bar he hung out, it was a fruitless exercise haha!!!
The GR is the finest compact camera I've ever used!

You could transfer some of poison back ! Show us photos of MX-1, it has great DOV as far as I remembered last playing with the pre-production unit.
