What do i loose with the K-x, vrs the K10D, is there only 1 thumb

I don't think the K-x comes without a kit lens.
I recently posted comparisons between the K-x and my K20, most of them
apply to the K10 as well.
There are some advantages to the K-x layout, with all of the buttons
on the right.
You lose:
focus point indication
weather sealing
second thumbwheel
Softer skin over the body
A lot of size and weight (on the camera not the photographer, sorry)
One shutter press bracketing.
LCD size
The UI is very good for the limited number of buttons. I might put the
functions of the buttons in a different order, but they aren't too
tough to get used to.
I don't know how the sensors compare at low ISO, but over K10 I'm
sure that you'll be blown away by the usability of the high ISO.
For shooting a wedding the video could be very handy. It is
surprisingly high quality.
The camera does take some learning to get the most out of, so make
sure you have some time to practice with it. Even so, it took me
longer to come up to speed with the K20 from the K100 than it did with
the K-x.
I've been happy with my radio adapters from link-delight, though the
range is somewhat short, they're definitely worth the money.

Has any one found a K-x, new, with out a kit lens. I have looked at
Henrys, Visteck and McBains and they all sell it for $699 with the
18-55 kit.
I'm shooting my nephews wedding in July and i have talked to them
about what they want. They are looking for minimul flash, and as much
natural light as possible. I'm now toying with the idea of getting
the
K-x to use in any building and reception hall shots. I'm very
impressed with the high ISO shots form Bruce, Larry and Adam, that i
have seen so far.
I was planning on getting some of those umbrella adaptors that go on
light stands and a radio trigger for this event, from link-delight,
but i may just get them anyway to have. Its not a lot of money for
them.
