Sony announces (actually leaked weeks ago) the DSC-HX9V and DSC-HX100V with 1080P HD video and both seem to offer about what you’d get with the newest Sony SLR/SLT and NEX cameras, although with small sensors and built in lenses. Sony has put a Carl Zeiss label on the big 27-810mm super zoom lens, so I wonder how that will test?  I noticed they forgot to put a hotshoe on top, like Olympus did with their XZ-1 below.

Neither camera is available now, and I won’t be reviewing them, but I’m sure Dpreview have both in pre-production form, and will have a review posted in a few days.
