As I said the other day it might be announced on the 20/21st of May, but it could be months before it's on sale, might not be made yet.

Yes plenty of speculation about and a good few pictures released, some which look like genuine front and rear pictures of the whole body today.
Never-the-less best wait a few days and find out the whole truth
Does look interesting though, quite different to the K20D & K10D.

You could be right although I know of one certain person who has had his hands on one already

I guess he can't say much, if anything at this point but by all accounts it's very nice

Why not? Samsung have the know-how for that sort of thing. I've heard a lot more unlikely ideas...

Pentax today supported rumors by posting a teaser on its home page for a new digital SLR. Calling it only "the new K," the company shows a top portion of the camera and is running a countdown that ends on May 20th, when the announcement takes place. No clues are given as to what features the camera would have other than familiar DSLR features like a flash hot shoe.
The news follows weeks after a similar effort in Japan and supports rumors that the new camera is the K7D, the company's first true high-end DSLR rather than a simple replacement for the K20D. These claims have maintained that the K7D would have a new autofocusing system, burst shooting up to 5 frames per second, a viewfinder with 100 percent coverage and a fast 1/8000 shutter speed. Some have also suggested it may be the first Pentax pro camera to offer video shooting, at 720p.
