Leica will not be able to get the M9 components after a few years unless they do something like signing a long term strategic components supply agreement. I doubt Leica buys enough volume for that to occur. If Leica continues to produce a M9 after 2 or 3 years, it won't be the same camera inside. If that will be the case, why not call it a M10?
