When I posted my comment I knew that there would be several people speaking up about the new gear they purchased. But my point was - and still is - that many of the loudest critics may not have purchased much, if any, new Pentax gear.
Frankly, my feeling is that if you purchased gear "on the come," you made a mistake. Long, long ago I learned a valuable lesson: just because someone says they're going to do something doesn't mean that they'll do it. My first real estate transaction was going to net me a commission of more than $30,000. We opened escrow, and I bought a car. I told a relative about the deal and he said "Don't spend your money until escrow closes." I knew what he meant, but had already spent the $$. A few weeks later the deal fell apart and I was in worse shape than before. While I can certainly empathize with you, it was your mistake and not Pentax letting _you_ down that caused your grief.
