K-01 user feedback

I'm surprised that there has yet to be any feedback from any early adopters here at PUF. By this time in a Pentax product's life a lively discussion on its merits and demerits would usually be well established here. Is the lack of discussion of the K-01 an indication that the doubters were right? Given that I would prefer to use my Pentax glass (small Ltd's in particular) fully functional - ie. without having to resort to an adapter - I really want to like the K-01, as a slightly smaller, more discrete (other than the yellow) alternative to the K5 for street shooting in particular. However, I'm far from convinced - so would be very interested to hear owners' impressions - particularly on size and handling, AF speed and LCD useability.

Thanks for posting your impressions, Chris. I keep on changing my mind about the K01. I guess the only solution is to handle it myself next time I'm in the UK - in August - by which time more user feedback will hopefully also have been posted.
