What I Did On Summer Vacation

Some interesting tidbits to be had from the official ABC Lost podcast, which had highlights from the Lost panel discussion at ComicCon in San Diego. Of note:
There will be a Rousseau backstory episode this coming season. Not in flashback form, but we will get her story. (Side note - the show's producers said there still will be flashforwards and flashbacks, but also they are going to 'try something new.')
Vincent the dog will show up again.
Jin and Locke, we will see those characters again. In the Q&A session of the panel discussion, someone asked if those two characters were gone. And Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindeloff said no, we will see them again, that death is relative, yadda yadda. Very cagey they were. But we will see those characters again.
Kate and Sawyer will see each other again at some point.
The island did NOT travel when Desmond turned the key and the hatch imploded and the sky turned purple back in season 3.
Farraday's notepad is full of information about stuff that has happened and that WILL happen and we will find out a lot more about this in season 5.

Season 5 will begin in February. 17 episodes.
