K200D price is too optimistic, they will have to lower it at least to current Nikon D40x price. Otherwise this camera won't sell.
It would sell better at the D40x price, but the K200 does have some specs over these other cameras. The K200 is weather sealed, has Dust Alert and in camera shake reduction. All of which will be selling points to a lot of customers.
