Dpreview reviewed Panasonic 20mm/1.7
Dpreview.com reviewed the Panasonic 20mm/1.7 - small, pancake lens with good minimum aperture for Micro Four Thirds cameras. The conclusion was that the lens is an "excellent lens, especially considering its tiny size".
On Olympus EP-1 it does not have automatic chromatic aberations reduction but you get the IS because Olympus m4/3 bodies have IS build in.
It's sharp even at 1.7 which I think is great.
Also the review was recently updated with photos took with Panosonic GF1.
Look how small it is:
You can read the whole review here. The whole name of the lens is "Panasonic Lumix G 20mm F1.7 ASPH".

It’s very interesting lens.The focal lenght should be great for indoor shots – with f1.7 you won’t need flash. Great for museums, family reunions etc. Shame that there is no IS on Panasonic body with this lens.
