looks like they had boilerplate ready for that question:

[25/Jun/2003:18:30:14] <Leica host 4> jira: Can you try to compare the
(aimed) digital photo quality with current top 35mm films? Leica: With
almost all applications the same image quality can be expected.
Experience made by Kodak with their 6.8 痠 pixel architecture lets us
expect an excellent image quality especially in conjunction with Leica
lenses.

25/Jun/2003:18:51:37] <Leica host 3> luoyan: In terms of the image
quality, could the quality of picture made by digital back would be as
good as the picture made by film? thank you.Leica: With almost all
applications the same image quality can be expected. Experience made
by Kodak with their 6.8 痠 pixel architecture lets us expect an
excellent image quality especially in conjunction with Leica lenses.
