What's funny is there is already discussion that the upcoming Oly 100-400 f/5-6.3 is actually re-badged Sigma.

We Pentax users can empathize, I think.

Speaking of which, there seems to be so many QC issues with the PanaLeica 100-400 that there really is an opportunity for Olympus here.

Yes,that PL is expensive to fix...from what I've read it costs 1.6 times the original price overall with the exchange thing they do.All repairs have to be sent to Japan,so it's down time$.

Olympus has ticked up their marketing. Instead of a once a week Spam, they've changed to Daily. They ain't dead yet
