Update: The Leica T is now officially announced. Pricing and pre-order options can be found here.

The official website for the new Leica T camera is now live at http://www.s.leica-camera.com/Photography/T-System/The-Leica-T-Story (update: the site is now down but you can access the cached version here):

“A large APS-C sensor with 16.5 megapixels ensures colour fidelity, the finest details and pictures with exceptional brightness and clarity, even in unfavourable lighting conditions. And even on large-format screens. And for pin-sharp videos in full HD resolution. Top performance at the press of a button. Fast, precise and almost silent autofocus. Exactly like the newly developed image processor, which instantaneously displays the results on the big touchscreen display.

The integrated Wi-Fi module lets you transfer pictures directly from your Leica T to a smartphone, tablet PCs or computer. With the ease of wireless communication. You can also share your pictures quickly and easily on social media or by email with the Leica T app for iOS or the Browser Gallery on Android devices. Particularly practical: With the remote function of the Leica T app, you can, for example, use your smartphone or tablet PC as an electronic viewfinder and shoot with your Leica T by remote control.”

The Leica T has a 3.7″ LCD touchscreen (no buttons on the back) and 16GB built-in memory.
