OK, Rob,
I don't know. It seems crazy to you, and I have to say it seems crazy to
me, too. I am sure it would have been a good thing to have done three or
four years ago, but now it seems too late.
It doesn't detract from my argument that Pentax has limited funds.
Indeed, it makes them more limited. Sadly.

This reply has to be made publicly. Why would you say such a thing
knowing full
well Pentax is off on a tangent pouring funds into a digital 645 body
which
will be extremely costly to develop and have very limited appeal and
marketability? I'd hardly call that cautious. And all the while they are
loosing people who require higher spec bodies to Canon and Nikon. :-(
