You need to throw Kodak into that mix too. My source at Kodak said a few months ago that the DM-R wasn't going to reach the consumer. Mostly because of Leica's financial situation. Kodak is also haveing problems and cannot afford to fund the DM-R project if Leica is not going to pay them.

If true, this is truly sad. For Leica have 'bet the farm' on the DM-R. If it gets kiboshed before reaching market, their R&D money will be unrecoverable. Given Leica's financial position, that could be a body blow. :(
