Here the links to amazon with availability info (I got the availability data from Panasonic, not from amazon):

UPDATE: I made a mistake. The GF1+14-45 lens will be available early October!

Why November for the 14-45? Are you sure? I can’t find a mention of that on Amazon.
I know it from Panasonic!
Whats going on in the UK and Europe – no rumours yet on prices and availability?
No info yet. I hope on monday there will be some good news for you!
Yea, What’s with the delay on the kit with the 14-45? Isn’t that the same lens already sold with the G1? I’m not that impressed with the 20 (especially the bokeh) so I figured I’d go for the 14-45 now (which shows amazing sharpness and distortion control for a zoom) and wait for the 14mm next year. And what about the colors? I’m diggin the red but so far only the black is show for pre-order.
Sorry if this is a basic question, but what does it mean that the leica lens is a “macro” lens – is it only good for short distances or is it also good for short distances as well as tele? Thanks
Still no news from UK and/or Europe? Panasonic must be forming a plan for the UK, surely they will tell someone soon?!
I’ve finally found a link to company in the UK taking pre-orders with prices:
