The K7 has quite a little cult following, basically with performance about two years ahead of its time for the price. I wonder if it'll be one of those items that maintains its cult status, or if it'll be eclipsed by the next new thing. If Pentax can learn from what they've gotten right on the kx (and the k7) and correct their shortcomings in future models, they could kick some serious butt in the market place. What it would take would be a k7, with incrementally better focus and metering, kx sensitivity, Kx color choices, and in the stores. And yes, I'm serious about the color choices, they attract people's attention, they would try it out just out of curiousity.
