Will I even notice the difference between 15mm PL F1.7 and Olympus 17mm F1.8?

If you are using Panasonic bodies, then you will miss the aperture ring.  It may sound like it is not too important, but I find it very helpful rather than dialing in the aperture through the body.  The 15 1.7 is sharp and easy to use.  And it is a 30 mm so you get an additional bit of width in your shots.
