From DP Review (http://www.dpreview.com/news/0306/03062403olympuse1.asp):

   The Supersonic Wave Filter causes an ultra-high-speed vibration to
   occur, making dust and/or other particles literally fall off the
   imager, which are then captured on a special adhesive tape. This
   function is invoked at each start-up of the camera but may also be
   manually effected.


My question is, how long is that adhesive tape effective? Maybe John
and Clint need to gear up for adhesive tape replacement :)
