I'm pretty sure you can shout that one from the roof-tops without worrying
about the prices going up - and if Leica really comes out with an R9, that
isn't just a slightly tweaked R8, you can expect the prices to drop even
farther. Simply put and the loyalty of some on this list aside, the R line
has turned into a commercial dog - in part because it's with the R cameras
that Leica is really competing head-to-head with Nikon and Canon and isn't
providing what most Nikon and Canon users want.

Needless to say, the real bargains in used are the R bodies/lenses.
