Yes, but what about the time plan for such an upgrade? Let's say that  
you won't buy a full-frame within the next two years. But within two  
years the DSLR market will change a lot and maybe there will be a Pentax  
full-frame available, then.

It's the same with PCs: if you buy a certain PC with the intention to  
improve it in the future (maybe with a faster CPU), then you will find  
that these possible improvements will be outdated, soon. The 1Ds of  
today is no argument to change to Canon if you don't want to buy it  
today but in two years.

Cheers, Heiko
