For camera gear, though, I would go with B&H. I've ordered from them many times, always had the gear come through on time, and returned a few things to them with absolutely no hassle. I bought my adapters, Leica and 4/3rds, from CameraQuest and B&H, respectively. $175 is about right for the Leica adapter. You can find it cheaper via *Bay from Hong Kong if you want to go that route. Color? Why would you buy anything but black???? I don't think you'll need a second charger. I easily get by with one. I've never bought a supplementary service agreement so I can't comment on that. Enjoy the G1. The more I use mine the more I love it. Except for some edge fringing issues, the Leica lenses work well on it. I hope to be posting a few new images from it soon.
