That's kind of where I came out on this. I knew Doug had a camera, but
also knew it was pre-release firmware. And since the things that
interest me most -- such as autofocus performance with SDM lenses and
exposure exactitude-- might be firmware dependent, I thought it best
to wait until there was info available based on final release cameras.

The sample K-7s are also in some cases pre-release *hardware*, which
implies to me that it's possible that they've got not-final sensor
chip
versions in them. Interesting for ergonomics but not any just test of
image quality.
So it's interesting if someone who has got one says "aieee, what were
they thinking?" but not particularly otherwise.
The other thing I think might be having an effect is that more people
than usual may have no hardware budget just at the moment.
