Maybe three years ago they woulnd't have even considered reviewing a digital Pentax. Then they compare to the D300, which is actually the DSLR state of the art...[remember also at first no one considered the K20D at D300 level] and they seem on par.
Anyway i'll trust only Ricehigh review, the K20D seems made just for him
To me, D300 + K20 + nothing really huge from Canon = really big market changes.
