Dear Pentax Father who art in Japan, the only true God,
Let your name continue and not be profaned. Let it continue even if it has
to be in some hyphenated form such as Pentax-Samsung.
Let thy corporate entity flourish and continue to produce digital SLR
cameras.
Let thy will to keep the same market share or even surrender some to the
competition be done in the USA as it's done earth-wide (who cares what they
think?).
Give us this day (or sometime in the near future) our megapixels (hopefully
12mp or more), and our big buffers to take more than 5 or 6 rapid fire
shots, and our faster AF, and our simultaneous dual format RAW/.jpg ability,
and our larger LCD screen, and our HyperProgram mode, and our complete lens
compatibility with all previously existing K-mount lenses.
Forgive us for looking envfully and coveting the DSLR's being produced by
your competitors just as we forgive those who actually go and purchase them.
Lead us not into temptation by not producing a comparable product, but
deliver us from evil by shortly giving us, your faithful servants and
acolytes, an answer to our prayers.
For yours is the corporation, and the product, and the marketing power, and
the glory, forever and ever.
Amen
Tom C. (all in fun)

It seems that all prayers of Nikon users came true:
Now let's hope that Pentax listens to its loyal users' prayers and at least
we will have fully K compatible body with most of above improvements
built-in soon...
