Well, you *can* choose other channels on the K10D, the same way as with the 
*istD.

Having said that, setting it is about the most convoluted and unintuitive 
way imaginable:

The camera picks up the wireless channel of a slave set to remote when its 
mounted on the hot-shoe.  So put the flash on the camera, set your flash to 
Channel X and Slave mode, then enable wireless mode on the camera.  It will 
show Ch X (where it usually shows Ch 1), and will work just fine on that 
channel.  You then take the slave flash off the hotshoe and put it where you 
actually want it...

Whoever thought up this at Pentax should be shot.... (what would be wrong 
with just using a thumbwheel to change channel while its showing "Ch 1" 
after turning on wireless mode...)

> * No HSS in wireless mode

Indeed.
