Subject: [Leica] A mini-digital M (!)?

A micro 4/3rd with half of the flange to film distance, meaning no 
space for a mirror box. DPreview think this necessitates an EVF or 
LCD focusing, me think this could also mean RF focusing!

The Olympus E420 is ridiculously small, now half the body depth, put 
a Leica RF unit on top... Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.....
