Anyone still using one of these?

Never released in N.America, it wasn't even reviewed by DeepPeeve. They
waited for the release of the E-410, which had a Panny sensor and Live
View.  I think it was maybe the low point of DPs treatment of Olympus, the
harbinger of which was its bad review of the E-330.  I hated DeepPeeve at
that time.

Back when I was shooting the E-1 most of the time, all I really wanted was
the same camera with twice the pixels.  I kind of forgot about that, moving
on to the E-3 when I could.

I picked up a E-410 on a eBay lark and have enjoyed its advantages of size
and especially the kit lenses that came with it.  But I have always
wondered about the E-400 -- the last of the E system CCD bodies.  It would
be a very different experience to handle from the E-1, but I like the way
the E-410 handles, so no worries.

I finally found one for sale in the UK on the Bay.  Should arrive sometime
during the first week of April.

Even I find myself strange sometimes.  What have I done?
