That sucks if its true, probably done to save battery charge.....That should be able to be turned off and shoot at will with SR if you like IMHO.

One thing that I didn't figure out until I'd read the manual ten or twelve times is that SR does not work unless you hold the shutter release half- pressed for a few seconds, until the SR (hand) icon shows in the lower left of the viewfinder. If you just fire the shutter all the way, no SR. Might explain the behavior you're seeing. At least, this is my understanding from the bottom grey box on p. 68 of the manual and from my K10D's behavior. I find SR works **GREAT**. I regularly get shots at 210mm at 1/15 that show no signs of motion blur.
