Kinda fits the bill....
The rumoured K01 is 79mm high.
A K-x is 69mm w/o the prism/VF, 83mm w VF but w/o prism and 79mm with VF and 3" LCD, i.e., removing 3mm from the bottom which is a bit thicker than required.
BTW, a NEX5 (no VF) is 59mm, a NEX7 (VF) is 67mm where E mount and K mount have the same diameter.
So, I guess it must be with an EVF if it is this high w/o a prism. Which would make the mystery sighting unrelated or fake.
Moreover, rugged-looking is unlike the rumored design (Optio-like and by Marc Newson who seems to like lean design).
OTOH, maybe no VF meant "no prism" (e.g., if only spotted from the front) and rugged looking meant the rumored leather case ...
