Warning, polemic follows:
I suggest that you think of it this way Walt: the E-1 is only 5mp and
has obsolescence pretty well built-in. Yes, it is a gorgeous piece of
machinery, and it takes lovely photos, but you would surely want its
successor within 12 months.
Your OMs have lasted years because they're the top of the pile for 35mm
photography... the system may be near the top of the pile, but the E-1
is for the early adopters who can afford to replace it when the next
body arrives - within 12 months would be my guess.

Do you mind!?! Could you please cease and desist with the E-1
stuff? I insist most strongly that you post no more pix! You
have caused me to start calculating how much of my OM/Zuiko kit
I'll need to sell in order to afford, on a poor retired person's
paltry stipend, one of these devil's toys. You are an evil, evil
man. A pox on you and all that stuff. Get thee behind me, etc.,
etc.
