Annsan, Pentax Colorado is notoriously slow. Hell, they won't open their mail and check in your camera for 3 or 4 days after arrival. For $25 you can get special handling/rush service and it's worth it. You talk to a service guy on the phone, then send it to his attention. He gets it in the mail, checks it in, and gets a service tech to look at it in 24 hours. He will then call with an estimated cost to repair. They still ship the camera UPS on the way back (shudder remembering Texdance's experience), but you will see it a lot sooner with the rush service. My LX took about 10 days - 2 weeks this way, door to door. Regards, Bob S.

My feeling was they jsut didnt want to do it. - They had given me an estimate and a diagnosis before,then said they couldn't do it. I may have to send it somewhere and pick it up on the road. October 2 is my departure date. I'll probably get off an email with my itinerary to those of you who anticipate a visit from me off the PDML list. annsan >> - This message is from the Pentax-Discuss Mail List.
