This actually looks like a better option for me, than the Oly micro product, 
for climbing use:
 
it is a bit smaller and  it comes with a 24mm/2.8 equiv lens as standard, with 
supplementary lenses for even wider.

24mm is my ideal normal climbing lens. 
 
Initial price is only a little more than the costco special on the Oly pen 
($500) with kit zoom offered currently.  The oly compact pancake lens raises 
the price of oly quite a bit and is only 34mm equiv. 
 
 Will wait for review , but this looks like a winner for rock climbing.
