I'm not sure there's a market for yet another 6MP camera, let alone two of them. I'm expecting a 10MP+SR (the K10D), and a cheaper non-SR body (the K1000D?) using the same 10MP sensor, but without some of the higher-cost bells and whistles. But it's all speculation - we'll just have to wait and see.
