Subject: [Leica] The 90's: f/2 v. f/2.8

Greetings,

	I've solicited opinions from everyone I know, including my son's first
grade teacher. Probably should have turned here first...

	I'd like to purchase a new 90mm lens for the M camera. Can't decide
between the f/2 and f/2.8. I'm told the f/2 is better for portraits and the
f/2.8 is better for everything else.
	Which is easier, faster to focus? I don't have access to try them
myself.
