K20D TTL flash capabilities - does it have any?

Subject says it all really, but I'm guessing it doesn't.

I would just ask those privileged persons who have had a look at the new camera to let us know if Pentax have re-enabled TTL flash control.

Inside the mirror box there will be a rearward facing sensor at about (or exactly) 45 degrees to the sensor plane. AFAIK, the *istD is the only Pentax DSLR that has TTL capabilities.

I can't find any information re. flash in their K20D press release, save for the mention of the x-synch socket.

Correction - *ist-D and *ist-DS

Don't hold out too much hope for TTL on the K20D...
