Jump on the spiral "up" staircase why don't ya!
Bigger Sensor? More Mega-Pixel$… Fa$ter proce$$or in the camera,
faster larger $D card$, longer tran$fer times to your computer, Fa$ter
computer, more RAM, Larger $torage, new I/O $pecification$ to enable
better transfer times, means another new computer to handle the new
card that handles the new I/O.
Six months later, a newer faster bigger sensor and the search goes on
for your wallet to pay for that 5-10% increase in speed, none of which
does anything to improve your photography.
And I need to improve my photography! As soon as I finish the next
level in Mafia Wars, then find all my old lady friends that are still
alive on Facebook and Google to help me remember my life!

By full-sized, I was referring to a sensor that was the size of 35mm
film (24mmx36mm or thereabouts).
What on earth is an "official rumor"?

I wouldn't describe Pentax is stalled. The upgrades have been
continuous. There have never been any official rumors of a larger
sensor in a Pentax compact DSLR body. (What's full? Al sensors are
full size if they're not nicked or chipped.) The K5 is
substantially improved over the K7. But let the whining begin:-)

My overall feeling is the Pentax is stalled in R&D. There have
been rumors of a full-sized sensor Pentax, which would be
wonderful for us who have Pentax lenses designed for film (that
would be ALL of my Pentax lenses except for the 40mm pancake).
There is little that would entice me to move from the K-x with
43/1.9 to something else. The combination is lightweight and fast
and comfortable in my hand.
