  OK guys and gals here's reality:

  You have a choice of knocking your brains out, which in 99.9% of the time 
about absolutely nothing, wilder than beeswax opinions what he said or didn't 
say and what may or may not happen! 

  Quite frankly "WHO CARES!" J Oh I suppose some do, obviously some have an 
opinion and they're entitled to them, but then they have absolutely nothing 
else to do in life!

  We are photographers, not mind readers, have absolutely no investment in the 
Mother company and they don't care what we say nor think, despite what some 
folks think they think or listen to.

  If we were listened to, imagine this? We'd have light weight camera bodies 
and the fastest sharpest crispest auto-focusing, manual if you like it that 
way, lenses in the world. 

  The M8 would be M-12, full sensor with a choice of auto or manual focus 
lenses, flip out backs that work so well you could be blind folded and still 
see an image! Selling for the happy face price of a few grand. J J Believe 
whatever  you want. 

  However, do not tell anyone you really believe it! J Or they'll call the guys 
in white coats and body restraints! ;-) 

  Obviously some of you realize Leica has never ever in their wildest dreams 
ever listened to what is written on this site or any other Leica site espousing 
things good, bad or helpful to Leica! 

  Or in the realities of life, you leave it be, go out and take whiz bang great 
photographs with the camera and lens of your choice and have fun! J

  And some day in a world far far away in a no name galaxy of Kaufman, he and 
crew will have all the bugs and economics worked out! You'll all smile.

  But still complain about the cost of the new electronic apparatus Leica 222! 
J 

  Or whatever! But all will be happy holding hands and singing!

  What are you anyway? Photographers or semi-mind readers without a hope of 
fathoming the inner workings of the owners mind?

  Oh go take pictures and leave this alone and some day it'll resolve itself 
good, bad or ugly!

  Get with the program as photographers not mind readers! Now get out of here 
and remember, be careful when shooting those wild wild images!!!! J
