So yes, the advancements of the P&S camera are definitely the death-knell
to the
DSLR. [ . . . ]


I'm afraid you have it all bass-ackwards. DSLRs have come down in price to
the point that they are pushing high-end compact cameras (I despise the
silly term "P&S") completely out of the market.

I'm sorry to see the "prosumer" level compacts go, but going they are. ...


Don't look now, but "prosumer" level compacts by Panasonic equipped with
superb Leica lenses are going strong.
