Selling NEX 5, wait for NEX 7?

I've read rumors about the NEX 7 being delayed along with the NEX C3 because of the disaster in Japan. Even before that I had only heard that it would come out in the fall.

This is what it is rumored to look like.

Very happy with my NEX 3.

Me too. Love my Nex-3.

Especially considering how much it cost, and the fact that I consider most digital cameras to be expendable purchases. I run mine into the ground, then throw them away, when they go ka-flut. Just like with all my other computer/electronic stuff.
 
It'd be nice if Sony would put out an EVF for the accessory port, but can that port even handle that much data?

I'm ordering an NEX 5 (tomorrow, if things go right). I've researched the crap out of it and if the E-PL2 had more of the features of the NEX, I would be buying one of those just for the EVF-2.
 
Before the NEX, I had 3 other digital compacts. I specifically chose models that had a viewfinder built in. But did I use the built in finders? No, never; always shot using the rear LCDs. For cameras that small, to me that seems the most natural way to shoot them. So when I got the NEX, I wasn't bothered by the lack of a finder. And so far I haven't missed it either; the rear LCD is all I need.
 
I just attach a cold shoe adapter and mount a 25mm VF for use with my 16mm lens. It's close enough for composition. Or I attach a magnifier (with eyepiece) to the LCD when using a manual focus lens w/ adapter, and voila... instant VF!!!

current NEX lenses would work on full frame ?
