Hi,

I know what you mean, I would prefer fixed focal
length zuiko's, but I want something wider than a
24mm, and the zuiko's are well outside my price range!

There are alternatives.
I have the Tokina 17 mm F3.5. I used it a lot until I was able to buy the Zuiko 16 mm F3.5. The Tokina 17 mm is a fine lens and not very rare. You can probably get it for about $100 - $150.
Here are some pictures taken with the Tokina:
