I thought that Nikon had revamped their entire line and naming
convention. Two different lines were combined and the successor to the
D300 was in one of the Dxxxx series cameras. I don't think that there
will be a D400 because NIKON put it's capabilities into a lower line
body at a lower cost to the end user.

I don't think Hogan was saying anything about the K-3 in particular.
In the Nikon world the D300/300s is quite old and he has been saying
that its replacement, dubbed the D400, is quite overdue. He's
actually poking Nikon by pointing out that Pentax put together a
camera with a very nice collection of features that has raised the bar
for what a D400 should needs to include. And, that it needs to get
that camera released soon.
He's been pointing out for quite some time that Nikon hasn't released
a good set of DX lenses for the APS-c shooter, and has been very
complimentary about the Pentax lens lineup.

Peter, let me try to explain. I seem to have grown to sincerely dislike all
too often seen on the internet ocassions when following the announcement
(and sometimes even following relatively reliable rumors) people start
proclaiming very loud claims.
E.g. K-3 is not revolutionary for the industry. It is great step up for
Pentax, that's for sure. But it makes absolutely no sense to say that it is
very imaginary Nikon D400. It is not. Nor it leapfrogs the competition. It
simply does not at this time. It may in the future should it come out devoid
of any bleeding edge cuts and bruises and should the market decidedly vote
by its money in its favor.
Until then - it is all hand off review...
I hope you understand me now. And naturally, I mean no disrespect to you or
anyone else on this list. I'm merely stating my opinion on the matter.

Yes, but unlike Kennyboy, Hogan actually deserves the respect he's
given. He's a Nikon centric guy, with an occasional nod to Canon, so I
don't read his site often, but when he has something I think is worth
reading, it's usually worth reading.

C'est la vie.
All hail the hands off reviews :-).
