No-one with hands on experience with new Pana lenses?

I have both bodies and both lenses at the moment. What do you want to know?

The 24-105 does feel lighter and with the more compact hood also somewhat smaller, but its still not a compact lens.

It changes the handling a bit from "holding a big lens with a camera mounted" (24-90) to "holding a camera with a big lens mounted".

I have used the lens now for 9 days dayly on a vacation trip and so far found it a very good performer (on the S1r). I have not done direct comparison to the 24-90, or if the 24-105 behaves different on the SL vs using it on the S1r.
