Possibly not. Olympus is well aware of the possibility of the E-510
being cannibalised by the E-420, and pressed between it and the
Panasonic Lumix DMC-L10.
On the other hand, I am under the impression the E-410 hasn't sold as
well as it was hoped, so it might have received upgraded priority to
revive its lot.

Actually these were f:1,8 (Olympus OM-10), f:1,7 (Konica), even 1,4
(OM-1). But none were pancakes like the new Zuiko ED. So a 25mm
f:1,8 or even 1,4 more compact than the Panasonic Leica, but
weathersealed, still is a possibility.
