Yo, Tina!

I just got off the phone with Leica in New Jersey. The gist of the 
conversation follows.

Me: ?I?m the owner of an M9 that?s been found to have sensor corrosion.?

Leica: ?You can sent it in for repair and that will cut the lead time from 4 
months to 2 months.?

Me (tentatively): ?I understand there?s an upgrade path??

Leica: ?If your camera is found to have sensor corrosion, you?ll be offered 
an upgrade to one of 4 cameras.

Me (...4 cameras? FOUR?? Fingers crossed.): ?Is the Monochrome 246 one of 
them??

Leica: ?Yes. You say you have an M9??

Me: ?Yes.:

Leica: ?You can upgrade to the 246 for $3950.?

Me: ?It?ll be in FedEx?s hands tomorrow, and thank you very much!?
