I tried a bit of Pliobond on mine but it didn't hold for long.  I sent
the E-1 back to Olympus to get the grip replaced before the warranty
expired (may as well let them do it free :-).  I've since bought a couple
of spare grips and will replace it myself next time it loosens.  It's a
trivial repair, it's just a moulded piece of rubber with a bit of double
sided tape to hold it on.
