So maybe, just maybe, Pentax plays is smart and forgets about the "basic dslr"idea.

Janneman,
IMO Nikon is were it is today more likely because of D40/D40X than D3 or even D300. They had a whole year to sell those little ones in millions before launching the D3/300. Sony advances fast because of A200. All those are entry levels done right from the target buyers perspective. Of course for us these are toys yet for many new users there are all they need to advance into DSLR world. And more often than not the system you enter is the system you'll stay.
IMO Pentax needs an entry level camera done right just as bad as a higher end one. If they do so then they'll have two not very expensive cameras with different price/features/size to appeal a broader mass of consumers.
