Oh no GAS bites again, 7-14 on it's way!!!
I just ordered a Lumix 7-14, I've already got the 9-18 but have always had a secret hankering for the 7-14, found one for a good price so decided to bite the bullet and get it!!!
That gives me a nice little compliment of M4/3 lenses 7-14, 12-35, 25, I'll get the 35-100 when it's available then I'll be a very happy camper!! 
Which means the 9-18 is up for sale so check the for sale section if your interested.
Paul

Gah...I want this lens. I have the same kit as you (plus the 45-175). Let us know what you think when it arrives.

I will let you know, I used to have the 4/3 7-14, great lens but BIG so I know what that focal range is like to use which is why I finally relented and got the Lumix 7-14.
I was contemplating getting the 45-175 but will hold out for the 35-100.

I think you'll enjoy the Lumix much more than the M. Zuiko....

The 7 is something very special. It's virtually a 7mm prime for me.

As good as the 7-14 is, it's so specialized that it is the least-used lens I have. I use my 20mm and 14-45mm the most, followed by the 45-200 with the 7-14 in distant 4th place. I am occasionally glad I have it with me, but honestly, I don't find it all that useful.

This lens is very high on my want list, along with the rumored Oly 12-60/2.8-4.0 sealed lens. I want those two SO MUCH.
Congrats!
