While I don't have the exact numbers on paper, I saw one on ebay about a week ago with a serial number that was OVER 400 numbers higher than mine (2548072). If what I saw is correct and the numbering is sequential, then the run is definitely over 300. Even so, for potental "collectors" (my user already has a few nicks and the beginnings of a brassing), that's far less than the 2000 for the Millenium edition. Question is, will production actually stop based on orders received by June 30th, or will Leica continue to produce them for inventory? BTW, a really nice job, LHSA. Thank you. sam
