After having a go of the Powershot G9 at my local Jessops, I fell in love, I ordered it 2 hours later. Hopefully it should be here before the week is through so I can have a play with it on the weekend and get a few shots. 
I have bought a few things that have been recommended by others, paricularly a custom grip, thumb rest and hot shoe cover. These are custom CNC made by a guy in America, here, in total, I spent $43, this is barely anything in GBP and from the reviews of these products, I will see the benefit straight away, I will be using the camera originally without these goodies as they will have to be made and shipped (first class from USA for only $4!) from America and will take a few days so I will know the camera with and without.
Knowing that the 3″ LCD will want to be scratched as soon as I use it, I bought another Invisible Shield, $11.95 from ShieldZone. These are great and I had one for my phone and they are fantastic. It will still protecting my phone after being taken out of my pocket a good few times a day but had started to come off slightly at the cornors which ended up in me pulling it off (which I regret!), can probably reapply it but it needs cleaning etc
As for a bag, I am unsure, I found a nice one but upon reading review, may be a little bit big for the camera, giving that a pass for the moment and will read up more on the net for what other people use.
As per recommendations, I will be taking all my photos in RAW so they can be edited better, good thing I have a 4GB card as RAW files are usually over 8MB!
