i'm not bashing the m8 at all, actually i would quite like to have  
one but i need it to work in a client situation.  i just shot about  
30 executive portraits the last 2 days (with a d200): if
say, i had used the m8 for my shoot and this "bug" had reared it's  
head 30 times (actually 30 times, 4 versions of each person totaling  
120 times) i'd a been one unhappy dude.
as much as i would like to get an m8, at this point in my life, i  
would need to be able to depend on it professionally and it still  
seems buggy to me.  which kinda makes me a little sad.
