I do intend to buy one of the LCD-less Ms at some point within the next few months, one that has the same dimensions as my M3 rather than the thicker body. But first I have to sell my M8, and my typ2x2, and the 21/2.8 Elmarit-M, and the Voigtlander 75/1.8. And whatever remains of my soul. Less is more. Nevermore. Elsinore.
