David mon ami,
Well yer wording sucked me right in to look! Then, Hoppy came along with 
having the Canadian God Father have a word with you so I couldn't help it. 
;-)

I am not looking at any more pictures of Leica M8's or whatever the hell 
they  call it until it's an official announcement from Leica... Even then 
I'll be in doubt.

That is until I read your post from Photokina that you actually saw one, 
better still, had a "real one in yer hands and actually made a few frames" 
Then saw  them actually on a computer screen real time. :-) Then I'll 
believe it exists!

So be a good chap and do let us know it is real and works. ;-) Thank you,
ted
