In the case of the K10D I think it's BS, in reality it would have created a similar groundswell at US$100-150 a piece more on the MSRP with the more price sensitive punters knowing that soon enough it would be available in the streets at under US$1000, then even the first months sales (13000 :-) would have netted up to US$2M in gross sales. -- Rob Studdert HURSTVILLE AUSTRALIA Tel +61-2-9554-4110 UTC(GMT) +10 Hours [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://home.swiftdsl.com.au/~distudio//publications/ Pentax user since 1986, PDMLer since 1998 -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
