Obviously the web is going to slowly or possibly a "pay as you use" thing rather than the freebie it's been all these past years. Do you have any read on this happening? I mean would anyone subscribe to open the Leica Camera site in Germany? ;-) ted Ted Grant Photography Limited www.islandnet.com/~tedgrant - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
