I passed. Ordered a black k3 and battery grip. Don't want to stand
out, and all of my lenses are black.

Head of the FB group of Pentaxians in Norway has had K10D, K-5 in
silver, and has already ordered the silver K-3. He expects the 2000
will be sold out very soon or already. Five K-5 were preordered in
Norway but only one arrived through the official channels.
So if you want one you have to order now.

I agonised over it because I very much wanted a silver K3 but
didn't see a use for the grip. In the end I bit the bullet and
ordered
the silver kit mostly because I hated the way the FA24, 43 and 77
(all
silver) look on my black K5. I guess there is a risk that the
Silver K3
will be available later by itself but as I'm not paying a premium
(apart from the cost of the grip I may not use) I don't feel too
ripped
off. In fact, like most Australians, I am rejoicing that we pay the
same price as the US customers.
I would rather have waited for solid reviews but if the silver
kits
sell out and there is no rerun then I would be much more annoyed. I
know they are calling it a limited edition of 2000, but that might
just
mean there will only be 2000 editions of the complete kit, so the
only
truly limited piece might be the leather strap. That's just a
guess,
but I can't understand why they would bother bringing out silver
versions of the new HD limiteds and then have so few potential
buyers.

Hi
Some guy at Flickr said that he wanted the silver version,
without
the grip, which he didn't need. (The siver version is only
available
with the grip included).
I think that the Silver edition actually is quite cheep. You
get
the grip and one extra battery and a leather strap for appr. 250
Euro
more. That's a very reasonable pricetag. I usually pay 250 Euro for
the
grip alone - no silver, no leather strap and no extra battery.
I guess I'll order the silver version very soon - it's simply
beautiful!
And I happen to own three silver "limited" lenses - 31 mm, 43
mm,
77 mm. They af VERY nice, beautifully manufactured lenses, that can
produce very fine images.
It's funny, that they only make 2000 copies of the Pentax K-3
Silver edition.
I guess they are all gone in early November!Regards
Jens
