Errr...  we're talking about NEW prices right?

Otherwise the point that the ND was $7000 when released, $5000 six 
months later would be really inane. Yes, the ND was $7000 (new) at 
first, then Contax lowered the price. So did Canon when the D60 was 
near end of life, and so does every other digital camera manufacturer.

You can always count on a (new/retail) digital camera to be CHEAPER 
one year from now then it is now. Same model, lower price.

You can't count on a (new/retail) Leica being cheaper one year from 
now. Same model, higher price.

That's my one and only point.

Sheesh, you guys are a real bunch of ABSOLUTE BLOCKHEADS if I may say 
so kindly.
