I debated which thread to post this in (can mods combine the two threads on this topic?) but since there is more talk of the SDM-only potential on this thread, I'll speculate in here.

It appears that the SDM-converter on the lens roadmap has been forgotten. While we don't know what this will be, perhaps it is possible that it will allow the use of SDM-only lenses on non-SDM bodies?

If so, I would see this as an excellent strategic move for Pentax. It would allow them to drop the inferior screw drive for (certain) future lenses and bodies, while still allowing a solution for those who need the backwards compatibilty.
