I might be able to afford the Olympus, but not the Canon.

Firstly hi and welcome to WPF.
I don't think that birdsnapper was offering a personal recomendation just pointing you in the direction of a good comparative review. I have no personal experience of any of the current models but I did use one of the older Panasonics (TZ5) and was not hugely impressed with it. My initial impressions were good - nice zoom range, excellent LCD reasonable fast AF and little shutter lag. However the images out of the camera were over over saturated and just didn't look right, the lack of manual controls left me unable to correct this issue. In the end I sold it and picked up a used Canon G9 - much less zoom range but much better images. The G series have full manual controls so you can decide how a shot with look. You might be able to pick one up for under £200 if you shop about a bit.
