Default Compact Canon G9 or what else

I have decided I am getting a good quality compact. Main criteria is raw (I don't necessarily want to save shots in both Raw and JPG at the same time) and I don't need movie capability.

I am thinking of the Canon G9. Why

1) I have a Canon DSLR
2) Well known landscape photographer Guy Edwardes came to our club and a lot of his shots were taken with his G9 and I was very impressed with the quality and the strong recommendation he gave for the camera.
3) The reviews stack up well for the camera and I don't need to go G10 or G11 route (therefore save a bit of money)

Cost will be about £350

Usage - when fell walking as my DSLR is too big. Forthcoming trip to NYC (DSLR will go as well but compact probably better at night).

Any alternatives that members think are worth investigating

John
