Are you serious about the K20mm f/4 being lousy?  I've seen a bunch
of nice comments about it.  I'd always assumed that they weren't readily
availible for the same reasons that the A* lenses are not readily 
availible--Pentax didn't sell many and people are hoarding them.

If it is that bad (and if the M is likewise bad) I can see why the
A 20/2.8 goes for so much even used, and it pretty much leaves me
with the FA 20/2.8 as a worthy option  I guess I wouldn't be surprised if 
K and M 20/4 are not spectacular.  Nikon made 3 inferior 20mm lenses 
before finally getting it right with their 20/2.8, and these would have 
been rougly contemporary with the K and M lenses.
