If it were untrue, one might think that one or the other company, or possibly Hermes, would say something , so investors would have accurate information to guide them... The fact that no one so far has said anything publicly -- even over a holiday when their offices are closed -- seems to give some credence to the report. The troubling thing, though, is that there has been no further word from anyone, including Asahi Shimbun, beyond the initial report that supposedly originated with Asahi Shimbun, a highly respected Japanese newspaper. What many American corporations do in similar situations is to say that it never comments in such cases...This, at least, would let everyone know that Leica and/or Canon is aware of the report. --regards, bob cole
