Looks like we maybe able to use 3 kinds of battery.
Though why does the grips pack have an SD card in it? Just for storage?

I hope so, given this curious extract from the Pentax jp DSLR web site:
Most digital SLRs of today use exclusive, rechargeable batteries.
PENTAX, however, strongly believes in AA-size battery

Interesting. The battery looks identical to the Nikon EN-EL3.
Note the grip insert appears to hold an SD card. Dual cards? Or just a
holder for a spare?

Yes, according to at least one person who has seen and used the grip.

I don't think I'd use it to store an SD card, it seems somewhat
inconvenient. But as storage for my 'always thinking I lost it' IR
remote, it would be great. :-)
Still not sure that I'll buy the battery grip though. I had one for
the Canon 10D and almost never used it unless I was fitting

I used Bruce's D for a day, and while I'd probably not use the K10D with a
grip, I may. The grip was really helpful shooting verticals. For someone
who is shooting a lot in portrait mode, I'd suggest at least giving the
grip a try.

Still
I am disappointed that the power source has to be a rechargeable lithium
battery and not AA's like the other models. Am disappointed, too, that CF
cards can't be used along side SD cards like one Canon DSLR model. I'll
have to decide whether I want to move up or just use my *ist D until it
goes

That's quite a surprise. I still have to decide whether it is a good or bad
one. If it can improve AF performance, it's a good move.

I feel for you and I too am bothered by the idea of a
dedicated rechargable battery. The only upside is that
the bats are supposed to be long lasting (500 shots
w/50% flash use) and, if they are priced well, you can
always have more on-hand for backup. For an old
film/video guy like me though,
