Was a price ever announced by Pentax? As far as I can recall the only price that was mentioned was that published by the french mag (for got the name) based solely on the cost of a one off purchase of the Philips 6MP sensor + a fudge factor for the components surrounding it. Hardly concrete. Cheers, Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://members.ozemail.com.au/~distudio/publications.html
