THey are really cute, but unfortunately it is not a true TLR, and I have heard that the image quality is HORRIBLE.

I really wish someone would come up with a good digital TLR (or a cheaper digital rangefinder).
I love using those things.

I saw that and the Minox Leica clone as well this morning, but I don't know about the 5 MP. Especially since I saw a real Leica 4 mp digital in the same price range, granted it was used. That Minox is tiny though.

Actually, they have 2 other versions in stock including a red one.

I saw the Minox Leica clone three or four years ago in my local camera shop. This was a 4MP version. I think it's still there.

I have seen these (incl. the Leica) all over Europe this year, unfortunately it looks like something for a key chain, not to be used for a serious camera.

That's the impression I have gotten from them. For the price I would expect them to do better.
