Anybody else from the group get the invite to the Bergdorf's event tonight in NYC?
Anybody going? (I'll be there).

Hmm, no. Was the invitation from Leica directly or from your dealer? I received mail from Leica last week about the reception for the new exhibit at the gallery.

From Leica -- I'm guessing it went out to registered M8 owners in NYC.
The event is to celebrate the publication of Hubertus von Hohenlohe's "Urban Jungles" book.

Is this a Leica camera event?
I just dug the invite out of the trash, and it seems like a book release party. I can see that Dr. Kaufmann will be there.

I RSVP'd today and went. It was like being in a parallel Universe full of very strange very rich society people (not my usual crowd).
The nicest guy I met was a Romanian named Adrian who discussed the merits of the book with me, and I did meet Dr. Kaufman who handed me the S2 to try! Damn its sweet. Handles like a dSLR, doesn't weigh nearly as much as I thought and has a HUGE BRIGHT VF.
The art book was very colorful and done by a self-described "The Real Prince" who took a lot of pictures of himself reflected in shop windows with a D-Lux-2 in auto mode.
My 2nd Appletini really helped me to just relax and take in the kind of surreal (for me) scene.
