Leica Mini M follow up

I am going to cover myself with an each way bet here!

If the Apple like advertising turns out to be just Apple inspired and not connected, it could of course be a new product line after all.

With the Leica M (M240) only just beginning to reach the market, it might be easier to consolidate manufacturing than start on from scratch. I like the guesses I have seen on forums for a full frame M with no optical viewfinder.
I don't think it will have a built in electronic viewfinder. My reasoning being that it will be essentially the same camera as the M240, just without the rangefinder bits and on permanent live view.

So the same EVF connector (and hence the same choice of EVF to attach), essential the same chassis, same battery, much the same electronics and CMOS sensor and firmware. Possibly smaller LCD screen on the back. I guess they won't need the rangefinder cam in the bayonet. Metering would be directly off the sensor as M240 does in live view mode. Might allow for simpler shutter system too (won't need off the shutter measured exposure as used for the rangefinder model).
