[Leica] When is the next Photokina

[grduprey at mchsi.com (grduprey@mchsi.com)]

Alastair,

Keep me informed as to your trip plans to Chicago, I would love to get 
together again, and meet with the Chicago bunch. 

I hope you make it to photokina.  We are making a 2 or 3 month trip probably 
around August  to visit our past exchange daughters and also any LUG members 
we can arrange.  I plan to be in Cologne for the show and hope to see the 
R10 if they show it.  I hope the price is not too astronomical, or I may 
have to look for a good used DMR instead.  My R8 has been lonely lately and 
needs a DMR to make it happy again.  ;-)

Looking forward to seeing the results of the FOM2 book effort.

Regards,
Gene
