If you're on the fence, another review, and his quick flickr page.
Also, nice Amazon reviews, as well.

From the pictures I've seen taken with this, to me, it seems like this lens is far more versatile on the m43 platform than I would normally expect from a fisheye...I will find out soon.

I dunno how you can say that. The 14-42mm serves as a good quality body cap. It's ok...but IQ isn't very good.

my understanding is that depth of field on fish eye lenses is huge even at large apertures so, it probably won't be that hard.

Not an issue for most situations; at f/5.6 and focused at 10 ft away, the depth of field extends from 1.79 ft to infinity.
