There's also the Kiev 66 which is a Soviet copy of the Pentacon. Works very well and some of the soviet lenses are pretty damn good. It's a chunky tank of a camera though, best start working on those biceps :P
I have an OM-1 and it is indeed the most pleasant SLR to use, however seeing as you've been looking at F5s and the like I guess you want AF so the OM-1 is out. I like it for the good construction, large viewfinder, shutter speed ring by the focus ring on the body and the compactness.
I'd think the Bronica systems are a more practical and just as affordable way into medium format...how much money do you want to spend on a medium format system?
