What's interesting is that Leica just introduced a new "MP" model, which is

and is apparently selling quite well... makes the $1600 OM-3Ti's seem almost
inexpensive by comparison.

Actually, a M6TTL is probably comparable to the OM-3T, minus the multi-spot of course. The used M6s now go for as low as $900 and usually around $1300. IMHO, that's a better buy than the 3T.
