1001Cameras reported that the K-x is sold for $464 by both B&H Photo and Amazon. Comes with the 18-55mm kit lens.

Anyone still waiting to buy this camera?

Dang, don't tell me this! I need another camera like I need a hole in the head.

OTOH, a new Kx would go great with my trio of DA Limiteds.....yeah, that's the ticket!

Thanks for the heads-up! I ordered a K-x from Amazon 3 days ago for $520! They won't credit me the difference, so I have to return it, and I reordered. What a pain!

The K-x is a great camera, and at that price, its a real bargain. Its in the same price range as the entry model Canon and Nikon DSLRs; the Rebel XSi, and the Nikon D3000. The Pentax K-x is a lot more camera. The only less expensive DSLR is the Sony A230 -- which is a lot less camera.

I sure wish Pentax could pick up market share!

I ordered the k-x for my daughter & it arrived on Friday.

I expected it to be quite similar to the k-m, but it actually felt better than that. Maybe I had a bad k-m, but the k-x was a lot more solid feeling, the k-m had a little shiftiness in the body, I think it was the battery cover moving a little bit.

Shutter is quieter than I thought it would be, and the .jpg's look excellent.

So Pentax really is going to update the kx at Photokina! Interesting, I'd have bet on the k7 being updated but the kx is still so new. Well, updates for k7 and kx, multiple new models, and 645D, this Photokina really is going to be the Pentax show!
