And this isn't happening now? Maybe Leica sees some benefit in all of the speculation. But even a camera that gets criticized is better than no camera at all. Plus if it deserves criticism in advance it will also deserve criticism when it's released.
I think what is clear is that nobody likes to feel abandoned by the camera company he/she has chosen and made a commitment to. And that is exactly what Leica has done to its R users until proven otherwise. Maybe they'll prove that at Photokina, and maybe not.
If Dad leaves home for a few years, can't he at least write or call to say when he plans to come back? Without any word, why wouldn't Mom find a new guy?
