I can certainly second that.  The build quality of the MZ series
cameras is very light and plasticky.  My wife loves them for the light
weight and ease of point and shoot behavior.  I don't particularly
care for them because of the lack of heft and weight.  Of course, I've
been using and loving a 67 body.  But even an MX has a much more solid
feel.

As to marketing, Pentax has done NO marketing that I have seen around
northern California concerning the MZ-S or Limited Lenses.
