<< I am looking to acquire a 75mm  M lens. A few weeks ago someone implied
that Leica was probably coming out with a new 75mm M lens in early June. Any
news on this ? >>  

The "new" 75 mm lens is made in Germany instead of Canada.  It is about 40
grams lighter than the Canadian version.  Optically, they are supposed to be
the same.  The new one is out now.
