Good. 35-70 doesn't do it for me.
[ snip ]

	--> WHAT IF Leica managers simply decided to allocate
	all zoom 35-70 / f/2.8 production personnel to a special effort
	to manufacture enough of a still vaporware Summicron 28mm f/2
	in time for Photokina or some other deadline, thus maximizing the
	World market for a top dog reference Leica 28 mm f/2 lens ?

	This could tie in with an in-store stock rotation policy to maximize
	inventory "turns" . . . and improving net profits,
	both for Leica A.G. and their dealers, worldwide.
