That was 6 weeks ago, before it was released--no one knew for certain what the price was going to be. Prices on the lens are down to around $250 now that the market is flooded with them.

Thanks OP. Nice deal if you are looking to buy. Reps!
In my dream world I'd love get this camera at a mid-400s price or so. I don't necessarily see it happening, but I think that's my trigger....

The 320HS is a step back as well in terms of IQ. It uses the new sensor. The old sensor has better IQ than the new one.

OK, spend $350 more on the RX100 just because it's slightly thinner. I can fit the LX7 in my jeans pocket and I don't wear baggy pants. Maybe we're different sizes. Glad my jeans and genes saved me...

Yup, different requirements, different experiences. That's why (aside from ignorance) many cameras still sell. It's a shame the LX7 doesn't fit or even the Olypmus XZ-1 in the $200 range.
