In their photo department they had Pentax logos plastered on their display cabinets and were selling low end Pentax cameras.
I did notice that their photographers though were shooting with Nikon F100's.

Not so fast there, Mr. Bigdayphoto. The camera has to be in stock and shipping by Labor Day. They're only taking orders now.

I thought it was understood that it was listed "for sale", not "for order". It's been "for order" in several places already.

I don't remember saying anything about dealer's shelves, the bet was:
Ok, the bet is that Pentax will have a digital slr for
sale by 9/1/03.
"For sale" means it's listed on a major camera retailer's
web site.

Hi, Bill,
So, tvv gets a PP if the Starkist D is on the shelves within - let's see now, that would be - the next week!
Good luck, tom!
What do you win, Bill, if the camera ain't there (as I suspect it won't be)?
cheers, frank

Adorama sez they will ship when they get it from the manufacturer. Apparently, they don't have it on the shelves quite yet.

From Contax I learned the importance of having a small cute camera and a
small cute lens. The models we shoot would perform much better, even
though 90% of the time we are not shooting for money.
(In the accent of George C Scott as General Buck Turgidson in Stanley
Kubrick's 'Doctor Strangelove' - or indeed as General Patton in the film
of the same name) :
Excuse me but am I given to understand that the cuteness of your camera
is the deciding factor here in what you shoot with? Am I given to
understand that your models simply won't put up with having a lens a
couple of inches bigger than a Contax lens? Am I given to understand that
you're letting your models push you around? Dammit man! Stand up for what
you believe in!
Cheers, Cotty

And, what was the bet about?
Frank, how could you forget??
Wasn't there something also along the lines that Bruce was going to have
to eat something, er unpalatable?

Will the Metz 40MZ-2 with SCA3701 work on the *ist D? Any limitations?
