[LRflex] London Blow out of Demo R lenses

Hi Phil,
I frankly don't know what to think. I know that Leica is working on  
an R10 integrated digital camera (not a separate digital back) but  
with the DMR gone and the R 10 not likely available for 2 years,  
there is this gap in digital platforms which can only be filled, for  
some, with less than complete satisfaction, by the 4/3rds system.  
Maybe the dealers are just reducing stock which isn't moving - but I  
doubt they could do that without agreement from Leica. So, I don't  
know what to think. ;-)(
Cheers
Howard (in Hong Kong)
