>David, any update on the M8 Manifesto?

Thanks for your interest.

I'm still mentally chewing on the manifesto thing.

To be honest, though, I'm asking myself "what's the point?" of it now.

I have expressed my opinions albeit in a piecemeal fashion on LUG and RFf
numerous times. My views are unpopular and if there's a choir out there to
preach to, they aren't very vocal.

But most importantly, the M8 is clearly a "done deal" and nothing anyone can
say or do is going to change that.

I think that Brian's reference to the Stephen Stills song is right on. --
except my love remains with the R-D1, a camera whose flaws I can accept...

Dave.
