I pains me as well, Dawid.  I enjoy using my E-3 and 12-60 and 50-200;  
my E-420 is pretty good, although I don't use the 25/2.8 much, just  
the 14-42; but my next camera will probably be a Panasonic.

And it won't be the GF-1 since it lacks IS in the body.  I rather  
fancy the LX3, although the external viewfinder looks rather over- 
priced; it has quality of design combined with quality of image on its  
side, along with rather a decent focal length at the wide end.

None of the Olympus compacts, from the E-P1 down, excites me to  
anything like the same degree.
