Subject: [Leica] Prices too high

With M caneras becoming ever more expensive, and with other companies making 
cheaper bodies with adapters for Leica lenses, I find myself thinking I'll 
never buy another Leica body. Why should I if other companies have great 
chips to capture Leica glass on?

I also have my doubts about Blackstone. What do they know about quality and 
art? MBAs with sensibilities?  That's like professional wrestlers being 
artists. MBAs are bottom line dregs. Quick profit guys and gals. Quickie 
people. 

They may make a killing with Leica, both earning lots of money and doing in 
a quality product. I find it hard to believe they have Leica's best interest 
at heart.

The M10 will come. It's hard to believe I would buy one.
