What Pentax willcome up with at Christmas has already left the "drawing table" (autocad or whatever) and is on the way to prototyping, testing etc. NMo need to get or give advice. That train has left already, I believe.

I agree but the prediction was for "This Christmas" as in 8 months from now. Pentax will come up with new DSLRs in the future, I'm sure. But with their track record of being slow I wouldn't "predict" anything in that area for this Christmas. (and my "more P&S" comment should have been: "More DIGITAL P&Ses").
