You are absolutely on the right track.

But I think at this point, Sony's Alpha 350 is more attractive considering having many old Minolta lenses that are a potential for dust cleaning.

I could never convince myself to get even with the price tag of Leica lenses or at least to be in a position to defend myself in front of boss (Wife). May be this is one opportunity to have a lens in gadget with Leica written on it!
