Don't sweat it too much, B&H was first reported to have listed the K-5
as discontinued sometime in October. Less than 24 hours later they had
more in stock and it was recontinued. I expect that they will be made an
offer they can't refuse by Pentax on a shipment of K-5 cameras so it
will be recontinued at least once more before it disappears from
Pentaximmaging.com <http://www.pentaximaging.com/dslr/K-5_Black>
(navigate to choose you camera->Advanced to see it with it's brothers).
I say this because Pentax is probably discounting the K-5 much more
heavily than the retailers are currently reflecting in their prices.
It's a bargain at $750 for the image quality it delivers.

I see the K-5 is listed for $744 at Adorama.
I much prefer B&H, but I'd gladly help anyone "enjoy" a K-5.
Aaargh!
I've got a green-light to purchase a K5 "after we do our taxes" (and regardless
of the outcome).
No W2s in the mailbox yet, though. It's gonna be a close one.
