Suresh, these, and others like it, have been seen on eBay for some time. Prices vary considerably.

The Seculine universal remotes are much better. Worth the extra, because you get the cable option and half-depression for AF.

I bought one of those myself. I have the K10 and it actuates the shutter only. You can set the camera's program to prefocus while using the remote but this remote's only function serves to operate the shutter.
I do not have a battery grip so I don't know if you can conceal this remote there. Those of you familiar with my sling bag post can see that I keep the remote in a white envelope so it can be easily seen in black bags.
I cannot remember if I have tried the remote on my ZX-60 but I did try every remote from tv, stereos, dvd players and plenty of others to see if they worked on the K10. The neighbor's garage doors were going up and down that day so he was getting a little angry with me.
