How do you know it won't compare to Nikon or Canon?  We have yet to see
image quality results.  As for features it looks like a 10D or D100. I agree
that Pentax needs to offer USM and IS lenses, but that's been a fundamental
issue with Pentax since the beginning of time (or at least when Canon and
Nikon were doing it).

what I don't understand (not from you, Don, but from other posts) is that
everyone is ready to run out and buy a 10D because the *ist-D is not
compatible with K and M lenses.  Well guess what?  Neither are the offerings
from Canon and Nikon.  You'll still need to replace ALL your lenses, right
Tom and Cotty?

I played with Tom's 10D and another friend's D100 and they are amazing
pieces of equipment but I can't afford to replace my lenses for an EOS or
Nikon mount.  So, when anyone is ready to dump Pentax, I'd like first crack
at their A and FA lenses!
