Leica AG introduced their new distributor in Malaysia, and threw a party
last month.  Present in that gathering was a VP (don't remember his name by
now) from Germany, and Mr. Kuhne, the Slaes manager for the Asia region,
the same gentlemen who replaced my faulty R8 more than a year ago.

In his speech, the VP mentioned that some intersting new products will be
introduced during the coming Photokina, but no details were given.  He did
, however, reported that Leica had introduced 9 new lenses in the past few
years and that there are ten lenses currently under development in Solms.

The new C1 P&S camera and a Leica LRF 800 rangemaster, a laser rangefinder
were on display.  BTW, the dinner was excellent :-))
