I'm going to give it a try as well.
I bought a silkypix pro license earlier this year but if LR3 does a better job I might switch allthough the price of LR3 is quite steep
Funny thing, the download version is more expensive than the boxed version...

2. Where would the USB drive go? It would stick out from the camera and probably get broken. Plus, USB drives are all different sizes so it would not be easy to accommodate one inside the body.
I specifically wrote about the pico and nano drives. Your point about the size is valid.
The sizes of USB flash drives are not standardized which poses a problem when I think about it.

The Eye-Fi card does not work in the K10D and K20D as far as I know.
I don't know about the K-7 though.

I bought a Eagletec Nano USB flashdrive for use in my car and I started wondering about something.
Why do we still use dedicated memorycards for our camera's? Why don't we have a usb port in de camera where you can plug in your USB flash drive?

Size can't be a real issue, if you look at the different "pico" and "nano" flash drives (funny thing is that the "nano" drives are smaller then the "pico" drives...).

No need for that, Dutch law already gives you 3 year warranty on high-end notebooks.
Well, not exactly. The only warranty that is "demanded" by law is 6 months.
After that there is the regulation that a device should work without problems for a reasonable time. For a laptop you could argue that it should work for at least 3 years. For a washing machine you expect at least 6 or 7 years.

Isn't there a jtag interface somewhere on the mainboard? Allmost all devices I have a jtag interface on the mainboard (DVD player, SAT receiver, NAS unit, etc.).

Handling these JPEG's isn't really a problem for my C2D 3,16GHz with 4GB ram with Windows 7 64 bit.
For the RAW files a bit more memory would be nice I think
Now there is really a need for a 64 bit version of Silkypix...

Does PSE use the Adobe RAW converter or has it a RAW converter built in?
If it is built in then it will probably not recognise the K7 RAW images properly.

Well, I had the Seculine's but I returned them unused...
I picked them up at the store and when I opened the box it was very obvious that they were used and not new.
So I returned them.
The build quality is a bit better then the V4s but for the money the V4s are the best you can get. The seculines are quite a bit more expensive.

I prefer to use full manual mode when doing flash photography or I use the flash in 'A' mode so the flash decides when there is enough light en not the camera which does not seem very good at that task (at least the K20D isn't)
