OR a new model differentiation- K10D class will become the K100D series, and the K20D will be a full pro camera with all the bells and whistles.

Didn't someone (Benjikan?) mention that the new model we're all calling the K20D isn't actually called that at all? So that kinda fits with this....

I'm still holding to my long-ago position, which is basically your two points merged -- the new camera is a K2D (or something else with a different line name), the K10D stays where it is for another year (new model announced in September?), and there's a new entry-level K200D or whatever.
