Olympus DSLR with "Live View"

I don't know how I feel about this, not without getting my hands on it and testing it out for myself. But apparently Olympus has a DSLR camera that has a "live view" function. Essentially, instead of looking through the viewfinder, you can use the LCD screen to compose your image. Yep, like a point-and-shoot.

My only real concern is, wouldn't it be hard to steady the camera when you're holding it far away enough for you to look at the LCD screen?
