Hey guys,
It's the Panny DMCL1, announced about 4 months ago at PMA.
Here's DPreview's first article on it: link

The camera is interesting, but it didn't make that big of a splash considering the same camera is already being offered on the market under a different name, it's called the Olympus E330.

It doesnt look much like the 330. If you are saying it fills the same niche, yes you have a point there, but I like the idea of Leica lenses.

btw, where are you in Houston ?

According to Pana, they are not "real" Leica lenses.
