Received my E-500 (the two zoom lens kit) from Cameta on eB*ay
yesterday.  They are offering some nice packages, and I was not sure
how long the good deals will last, and the rebate will end July 31,
so I gave in to temptation.  Did a little playing around with it last
night, but still figuring out all the bells and whistles.  It seems
great except for the small viewfinder.  It is a good thing the
autofocus seems to work so well, even in suprisingly dim light.  But
that does not help for the OM Zuikos.  Speaking of that, I found out
you need to know what f stop to set a Zuiko to when using the flash. 
It seems like about f4 gives good results.  There does not seem to be
much exposure error with the Zuikos - maybe just -.3 EV at wide open,
then nothing further stopped down, but have not tried all my lenses.
