While that may be the case, numerous other retailers seem to know that the camera was neither in stock at their location, and that it is not available at this time through wholesalers or other sources, and make note of that one way or another right up front.
Surprisingly, I attempted to place an order for the camera through Pentax - they had it listed on their site with a nice, bright "Buy" button. Clicking the button brought me to the DL. Even Pentax hasn't got their shit together with this camera.
