Hi Jason:

Not necessarily. It is one of the better cost/performance options there is in
the Zuiko lineup.
<< However, do any of you out there think that the 85/2.0 might be a smart
substitute? >>
You are compaing apples and oranges. If you need an 85, then 100 is too long,
and vice versa. You didn't indicate its use.
<< I thought I would sit tight until I could find a 100/2.8, but I haven't
read too many positive things about it while I've been waiting. >>
You must not have checked the OM List archives at:
http://zuiko.sls.bc.ca/swright/archives/
Also check the lens test archives linked to:

<< What's the current market value of this lens? >>
Which lens? What is "market value?
http://www.datasync.com/~farrar/zuiko.html provides a starting point for
Shutterbug asking prices. But that is only one index of many possible ones.
