Subject: [Leica] No M8 for me in November

I ordered an M8 some time ago, and at the time was told I was third on the 
list at Keeble and Shuchat. Yesterday they told me the cameras would be in 
today. I stopped by in late afternoon. A very nervous and stammering Jeff 
Alford told me that I wasn't going to get a camera out of this batch and 
that whoever told me I was third on the list was mistaken. Terry Shuchat was 
standing 10 feet away with his arms crossed, listening to our conversation, 
saying nothing.

Jeff says they'll get their next batch "in a few weeks". Oh well. I'll just 
keep drooling for another month and using the Digilux II and the Canon SLR, 
both of which are fine cameras but neither of which is what I really want to 
be using.
