For those remotely interested........Leica has had my Geovid's for a week now, as they sent me a receipt of acceptance. I sent an email just to get an update, and the Mgr of customer care responded. This is the same lady that said they were bought 2nd hand (technically true), but admitted they were still "new" but couldn't be considered "new", but would "rush this service along". I guess she said that because she knows this is in fact still a DOA unit. Her response today is "hopefully" we can start repairing them by end of next week". So much for "rushing along" my service. I already had to help my buddy on his NM oryx hunt with my 2 yr old Sig 2200 BDX, which worked flawlessly in spite of it being tossed around, hauled in a UTV, day pack, bino chest pack, etc.
