IF you mean a Pantax DSLR featuring a full frame 12.8 MP CMOS sensor, built-in colour filters, 9(15) point AF, 35 zone metering matrix, 4 metering modes, 2? inch TFT-screen, 6 shooting modes, 3 FPS, 57 custom settings, 17 RAW-image buffer etc. - don't wait up. It will not happen.
If you want a camera like this (Canon EOS 5D) it will soon be available for app. 3200 USD (body only). Just go and get it. Not too much money for someone who makes a living from photographing. The EOS 5D is not, unlike Pentax DSLR's, aimed at the consumer market. I don't know too many people who are willing to pay what looks like a months wages for a camera body and a couple of lenses - for making shots for the family album or for the local camera club. This was made for pro's, no doubt about that.

All the arguments for hanging about waiting for Pentax are wearing very thin these days.
