Saw this mentioned in the Olympus wide angle lens deal and it's available for $594.95 delivered on Amazon. Currently on backorder but can be ordered.
It is a very compact and fast ultra wide angle lens for the micro four-thirds system with good image quality.
Lowest price on Amazon since the lens was released last May according to camelx3.
