Yes, good point. One reason I'm going to keep one of my *istD cameras
after the release of the 10D is due to its excellent high ISO

I don't think you have to worry about the K10D being better, it's very
likely going to be. As nice as the *istD is, it's not particularly good
at high ISO's. The D is noisy for a 6MP camera.
