welcome aboard!

there are, i'm sure, plenty of people here with spare leicas. as you may see 
on the friday for-sale day and also posting about what you'd be interested 
in will probably elicit some useful off-list replies as people empty out 
their closets for that M8.... 

i saw marc recommended a iii, which i'd actually recommend against, they are 
definitely built dodge tough but i personally find the two viewfinders 
difficult to focus and acquire with. they are dang small though. price-wise 
there probably hasn't been a better time to buy a leica. i don't know what's 
currently the least expensive of the M models, maybe a double stroke M3 or 
maybe even an M6, but any of them will serve you well. or you could get a 
leica SLR, i've seen some for as little as $350.

in any event, enjoy photography, and enjoy finding your leica.
