I just don't think it sold well enough to compel Olympus to make another model and there wasn't that much to differentiate if from the E-PL series.

In the end, it wasn't really what I needed to compliment my m43 bodes for a smaller camera.

True, it's nice, but without a niche. Olympus had to heavily discount thus model for more than a year in order to clear out their backlog. I got mine in a 2-lens kit for just $329. There could not have been any profit for Olympus in that deal.

By the way, I recently bought the VF-4 Finder for it at a cheap $99 and that makes it a much more versatile camera.
