Joe, I'm sure your familiar with the expression "A watched pot never
boils". This is my philosophy WRT the K10D release. It'll get here,
when it gets here.
My only concession is an email or phone call to my camera store once a
month for any new information on price or release date.

Good. One less K10D sale to slow down my order. I'd like to seet a
few more list members over there on the dark side with Cotty:-).

None would be correct. The source of informa
The only intelligent thing to do is to wait and see. Uninformed
speculation by the nitwits on DPReview is not a good basis to lose sleep
over. And who is going to die because the the camera is late?

Not sure about that. The Swiss Navy might use a lot of Pentax equipment.

If you read carefully, the information actually comes from Pentax USA.
But that may b
Agree. Corporate communications is an element of marketing, designed to
shape consumers' image of a company. Truth, right, motherhood, and

To me it matters not a whit why they chose to (or were forced to)

Pentax is plotting against all of us. They always have. First it was
the abandonment of the screw mount, which disturbed me greatly. Then
the aperture ring disappeared. Next to go was the aperture simulator.
Now they're trying to hide the fact that the K10D is seriously
flawed. I think all

You seem overly eager to believe anything bad about Pentax, Joseph.
I see nothing but unconfirmed sp
I just can't believe that people would take the hearsay about "stated
reason for the delay" seriously. Joe comments as if Pentax were
lying to him personally, and poses a note which seems to indicate
that we should all be shocked and horrified from some lofty position
of moral superiority.
They call that spin now Joe. Or possibly a simple miscommunication. ;-)
