Godfrey, if I was looking to buy a classic 4/3rds lens to suit both the E-1 and m4/3rds, it would be the PL 14-150mm with OIS
Can you still find them?

EM-1 Trying to Control my Spending

lucky for me I was pondering over a well priced excellent condition oly 60mm f2.8 maacro m43 lens. I took long enough to ponder and the lens was sold to another buyer.
For me i already have a oly OM 50mm f3.5 macro half life size lens. The 60mm has life size advantage and autofocus, but for now the OM will have to suffice.

There are a few around, yes, and it is a good lens. But too slow for my interest, and it doesn't have the tripod mount.
As I've said before, I don't really like or use zooms that much. I like them at the ends of the focal length range, where I use the extremes infrequently. So my E-1 system is 11-22, 25, 35, and 50-200 now. My E-M1 system adds to that with 14, 25, and 45 primes. Both are added to with Leica-R 50, 90, 135, and 180 mm primes, and Micro-Nikkor 55 and 105 mm.
Whew, that's already a whole bunch of lenses. =8^O

My current lens plans for the E-M1 are:
OM Zuiko 50mm f/1.4 for portraits.
m.zuiko 17mm f/1.8 for walkabout.
m.zuiko 40-150mm f/4-5.6 ED R for sailing club and day sports.
m.zuiko 40-150mm f/2.8 PRO for ballet/dance recitals.
I currently have the 50mm and the 40-150mm f/4-5.6 is inbound. I am ordering the 17mm tomorrow and the second 40-150mm will be next year. Somewhere in between I will get the E-M1 (waiting for some eBay auctions to finish - anyone interested in a like new Strobel Folding Guitar?)
