While, admittedly, I was dismayed at the some of issues highlighted, I saw that some of the tests in the review "were carried out using firmware 0.73b (the final development version). Leica informs us that the differences between 0.73b and 1.0 relate only to 'bug fixes and performance improvements' " If so, perhaps there will be further downloadable fixes. That said, as it has manual focus, and I would tend to use this 90% of the time on the street, the camera would be ideal for me. However, the test doesn't give times for shutter lag which is the singular most annoying thing about compacts. I'll have to try it out at a dealers myself when they get some in.
