Yet Pentax managed it well. They delayed introduction. Provided a sufficient number of cameras to get everyone talking and have now delivered a second batch. They're getting it right. Paul
----- Part of what continues to make me shake my head is that everyone but Pentax saw how large the demand would be for the K100D and the K10D. Pentax has said that it took them by surprise. Their employees monitor dpreview, where people were (and are) bursting at the seams for these cameras. Of course it's not my money at risk. But I continue to think that Pentax management could do a better job. I don't want to argue about this, just offer my impression. On the other hand, Pentax management has improved much over the past couple of years. Ned Bunnell's blog site (I don't have the link) has a translation of part of the interview with Mr. Torigoe in which he says that design and marketing are now working together better at Pentax, and using customer feedback.
