Here's what was posted, Tom, but as Joseph Yao says, Leica will
only admit to ongoing electronic upgrades, but not the "batches".

These "batches were presented as when electronics were
changed.

First:  SN 2285000 - 2422000
Second: SN 2427001 - 2435800
Third:  SN 2464101 - 2477300
Fourth: SN (Higher than 2477300)
