<<it's hard to see leica being that type of takeover candidate (with 
substantial physical or cash assets), which is 
a good thing.>>

The name "Leica" is the company's most valuable asset. Licensing rights to 
the name would be worth a fortune to some Asian camera company trying to 
consolidate a niche in the upscale market. Do the names Contax, 
Voightlander, Exacta ring a bell?
