Very true Chris, the price is definitely too high for the mainstream. For me
it was a business decision I could justify that revolved around what I need
to do for my employer. I bought local and paid the same as I would have from
trustworthy online suppliers but was ready to walk away from the deal I
struck on it and the Leica.
I am sure you will get one in time as it is a good upgrade from the E-3 for
all the reasons you mention.

Thanks, Daniel.
If ever the price became more manageable, it would be the new sensor, the
processing engine and the display that would bring me to it from the E-3.
But the price is quite daft at the moment, for me.
