[Leica] Audi designed Leica T

[jayanand at gmail.com (Jayanand Govindaraj)]

Because it helps sell the product by making it "hip" to own. This whole
product launch, positioning, etc is straight out of Apple's playbook, as I
had mentioned earlier. Not a bad niche at all to make a pitch for, and as
of now that space is up for grabs!
Cheers
