Phong-- 

Look at LFI's recent issue on its site (www.lfi-online.com) if you want to
see what Emanuel was referring to. That cat is already out of the bag and
meowing quite loudly.

LUGer Emanuel Lowi of Montreal suggested
cryptically (and then seeked refuge
on religious grounds) that one should
holding off any imminent M purchases 
for a couple of months.   I infer that there
means that there will be a new product from 
Solms.

It was from Emanuel on the LUG that I found
out about the 50mm Summilux M Asph, the
90 Summicron Apo Apsh, etc.

I am carefully watching for any post from Montreal.
I know he knows, but he is waiting for the moment
to divulge his secrets.
