I am glad the M3 is working so well for you. For a lot of the pictures I usually take, my original M is currently working better.

Sorry, can't post any pictures from a camera sitting in a box.

Interesting use of equipment.

I have no desire to use an inferior piece of equipment just because it is newer.

Hopefully new firmware will fix it, but in the meantime I will stick with what actually works for me.

If I was as upset as you seem to be, I would return it or sell it.

Returning to Japan is a pain and I would only get 50% of my money back.  Putting the M3 on ebay would probably be a net loss of $100 once all of the fees are accounted for.

If a firmware update fixes a lot of the problems, this camera could end up better than my M.  I don't have a ton of money invested in the M3 and my M still works fine.  I am just going to pack my M3 away until there is a substantial firmware update and make a final decision then.  Hanging onto the camera for a few months and possibly reselling later isn't going to cost me a lot.
