I do quite like them as an idea, a bigger compact with DSLR quality. Having to go into menus for PASM may or may not be an issue (stick it in A and off you go) so long as changing the value is easy without a menu.
The biggest problems for me are the price (V1 & 10-30 is D7000 money) and the fact you can't add accessories to the J1. A J1 with an accessory port would be worth a punt imo but the fact you need a V1 (and another ~£300) for a external mic was a bad idea given the sort of video this can produce.
That said in a year or so once market forces happen I would consider one, but that would mean I need a manbag to carry it in so I actually have it to hand....
