This is true. John just said that it's been discontinued and is sold
out but that likely just means no more coming from Olympus America,
existing stock at different stores will be around for awhile yet. Or
it could also be that B&H is slower on updating their site.

Yes, I'd say it's time for an E-2 (or whatever they'll call it) and as
I mentioned earlier, it seems to coincide well with some new pro
offerings on the lens roadmap. Surprising that they're not exhibiting
at PMA though. I'm wondering though if they might still do a press
release and/or press-only preview, but then you'd think they'd have an
exhibit too. I've never really kept up with the photo shows, is there
another one coming up soon after (like Photokina)?
