Let the speculation start now. This site thrives on second guessing upcoming Pentax products. It seems very likely that it will be an 8 meg camera with image stabilization, seeing that the new point & shoot A-10 offers these specs. It will have a Samsung sensor and, hopefully, a much improved image processor. Like quite a few new Pentax production introductions in the past this one will appear to have some "break through" technologies but then will fall short. It will end up shy of cutting edge products that C & N put out but will be a solid update camera aimed squarely at previous and current Pentax owners.
I believe it will have USN as well. Why? Because Pentax are about to release a new lens series. If they don't release USM now, they probably never will. I think USM will be important because all of the competition have it. I think Pentax made the Samsung deal in order to able to market new technology onto the market.
