One day OVF's will be things we see on dusty old shelves in museums... EVF's are the future.
Having said all that... I used to think that I couldn't manage without an OVF but these days I think that such comments are made by people living in the past who have not tried the alternatives or maybe have tried but given up after too short a time and therefore haven't recognised the advantages of other systems.
While sat on a beach recently I deliberately tried to make my GF1 unusable and I couldn't, not even when making sue that the Sun was pointing directly at the back screen, the camera was entirely usable and allowed me to frame my shot accurately (100% view) without peering into a tunnel.
