Paying attention and posting aren't necessarily the same thing. I've been paying rapt attention, think the M9 seems swell, and hope to get one after it's had a couple of teething months out -- finances and used-M8 prices allowing. The M8, with all its quirks, is on balance the camera which works best for me of all cameras I've used since I started camera-ing sometime in the late 1960s or early 1970s, and I expect an M9 would even improve on that. But I have nothing substantial to add, nothing I think would be as interesting even as some of my not-guaranteed-interesting-to-all Mac hints or off-topic ramblings about watches, whisky, retrocomputing or whatever, so I haven't burned bandwidth (here) with M9 drooling, speculation or those ever so helpful ex post facto hints about different design decisions Solms should have made.
