Hi,
About the Leica System Handbook, when I asked for one, I was told
that I had to pay.
Regards,
David

I have never received a 'little plastic passport card' for any new Leica
item I have ever purchased, nor am I aware of anything in the literature I
have received saying that I should be so honoured.
I have placed one warranty claim, and it was promptly and cheerfully
honoured without any request for documentation at all -- they simply
replaced it.
I do receive the system handbook every year or three, but that's because I
now know enough to ask for it -- I was sent one, gratis, two years ago by
Leica and foolishly mentioned on the LUG that I had received this, only to
find that everyone else seems to get one automatically ...
