That will make the M9 look pedestrian :-) But you know, of course bigger is better. I can't see a reason to keep an M8 except for back up purpose if one already have an M9, Of course if one can only afford an M8, that it still is a capable camera. Honestly, I really do not see the points you, Mark, Steve, and Rei are making. It's not a question, if one can afford an M9 and like rangefinder photography, BUY it.
