There was a pdf in the web recently that looked like a Olympus product 
presentation for staff and sellers. Some people close to Olympus Germany 
were rather shure it's not a fake, and Olympus' reactions were rather 
nervous (they threatened the web publishers to sue them if they do not 
immediately 404 the pdf). 

But it's still rumourware:

Model name: E-P1
10 MP Live MOS
5 fps
Antishake
splash proof
Dust reduction SSWF
Finder 100% with 1.15 magnification
Wireless flash control
Quick 11-points continuous AF

Release End of year
Costs unknown but likely quite more expensive than a D200.

If true, it would sound promising. But as said, this is the usual crappy 
unconfirmed photo gear vaporware gossip so don't give a dime on it!
