I do not see anything wrong at all that people pass around info each other and trade their speculations. Everybody does that everywhere. Places like DPReview are filled with those. It is one of the virtues (?) and the long traditional favourite pastimes of PDML :-). Like the "silly season" of Formula One, all sorts of speculations fly around (tongue-in-cheek or not) in PMA and Photokina time. Pentax are not the only sinner. Look at Nikon, Panasonic and Sony etc. Canon is about the only mfr who occasionally leak advance info quite intentionally as part of their marketing strategy, as "teasers". It's just part of fun when people get bored (or anxious ? :-). I absolutely see nothing wrong with it. It's a healthy mental exercise, and nothing more than that. I do not take anything so seriously as some other people apparently do. Ken
