In this case what I'm waiting for, thanks for asking, is a compact camera a
digital equivalent of a Leica IIIF to exist on a much bigger crop or no
crop.
A pocket quality digital camera.
A digital Olympus Clamshell XA or
Rollei 35 or 
Contax T3
Did they try to pawn those off to us in half frame? No!
Why? The minilabs and drugstores would pop a gasket and there was just no
reason for it. Maitani showed them that with just about everything he
designed.
I know they can do it digitally. They are holding out on us.
They proably already have mock ups.

Nikon 28Ti
Minox 35 GT

I believe the definition of Leica is
A pocket quality camera.
