According to Impress, the stunningly red-hot GH1 will be available in Japan on April 24 at an estimated cost of ¥150,000 ($1,500). It's useless to get disappointed with the price since we won't be getting it cheaper anyway outside of Japan.

The other thing to keep in mind, though, is that the GH1's video capture mode (which is basically the only differentiation from its $800 predecessor, the G1) does things the its competitors can't: that is, the cinema-friendly 24fps framerate at 1080p (60fps at 720p), as well as continuous contrast-based autofocus with an especially silent-focusing lens.
A comparison table between G1 and GH1 is presented below.
