The K10D is basically a D200 at a D80 price. I would
expect the K1D will be a D2Xs at a D200 price.

I would say we are, at the very least, looking at:

12 MP 
5 fps 
Bigger RAW buffer 
Full Magnesium Alloy Body

And possibly:

8 fps "high-speed crop" mode
Built-in Veritcal Grip
New AF and Metering Systems

And who knows what else they could have up their
sleeve.

All for a price of probably below $2,000.

This wouldn't compel me to buy the camera (it would be
pretty hard to think of a feature I'd want that the
K10D hasn't got) but I'm sure there are those who
would. After all, a D2Xs is only marginally better
than a D200, and a D200 only marginally better than a
D80, and yet all three sell...
