July 21, 2010 |The 14-42 sells on Adorama for $255, the E-PL1 body for $500, the combined cost is $755.
But the combined kit on Adorama is $550, $524 on Amazon and has been as little as $500 on special sales promotions.
So when do we see the E-PL1/14-150mm (28-300mm f4-5.6) kit for $750 (lens similarly discounted to the 14-42 kit), and with the EVF included for $950 or less?
Given the smaller sensored new Panasonic FZ100 with built-in 25-600mm equivalent f2.8-5.2, 14 MP sensor, 3″ hi-res flip LCD and AF assist light’s MSRP of $500, such an E-PL1 kit would seem required to avoid sales hemoraging.
For many the FZ100 will offer sufficient IQ in outdoors conditions (and possibly superior IQ indoors given the f2.8 at the wide end) along with the fun flexibility of a stabilized 600mm optical zoom. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.

July 21, 2010 |Meant to say “So when do we see the E-PL1/14-150mm f4-5.6 (35mm equivalent 28-300mm) kit”.
Also noticed you can get the 14-150mm for $519 at J&R and Computer World as well plus another $26 back thru Bing up to 7/31.

July 22, 2010 |The 14-150 quality is junk, not worth +200$
The only good thing about it is size otherwise the kit lens 14-42 got better IQ
