It's either going to be 'Nikon is doomed' or 'Nikon are restructuring and focussing on what they know best', here's hoping for the latter!
See you back in six months!
Unfortunately, should that happen then the reason for the switch would see me I'd end up where I don't want to go, Canon!
Well twelve months then! Following in Jules' footsteps!? Once a Pentax user, always....

If you've already taken PEF files and want to covert then to DNGs download Adobe's DNG Converter
As said, use DNG rather than PEF and you should be fine.
Another alternative is to use the Pentax Digital Camera Utility

Make sure you download the latest K5ii driver into your Elements software package... It probably didn't carry it from release...
Probably didn't and probably won't let you do this, Adobe would prefer you buy the latest version!

Would be very nice if Pentax could go down a similar route and reintroduce the original MX (or even a Spotmatic) in digital form.
Isn't that basically what the KP is? Or do you mean a total digital clone?

He did hint at that for the entry level models!

In a K-1 size body, or the size of a K-3?

You really wouldn't want a touch screen unless it can be turned off, so there is no point in having it in the first place. A touch screen only device (AKA a mobile phone) is already available for those that prefer it complete with video capabilities. Can you imagine a Pentax camera being yet another Android phone which appears to be your wish?
Just imagine having to go into touch screen menus before you take a photo or video to set up various options. A Spotmatic would be many times faster to use and produce better results with a nice new roll of Ektachrome.
