I'm with John, here. That wasn't me he quoted. I'm using the K10 without a grip now, because no one has one available, and I really miss it. I shoot a lot of verticals, and the grip makes it so much better. Also, while the K10 is bigger than the D, it's still a bit small for my hands without a grip.
