It would have been a winner for us few diehards, but a 
dead duck in the shark-infested waters of the 
photographic market.

Demand and sales revenues would never have exceeded 
production, development, labour and marketing costs in 
a month of Sundays.

Unless, of course, they made a special edition of 500 
from solid unobtanium and sold them for 100,000 USD a 
piece.:-)

I'm sure that an R10 and its dwindling numbers of 
potential buyers is the last thing the people in Solms 
have on their minds.  Sorry, but that's the way it is.:-(

Cheers
Douglas
