LIB! The last time I checked, the FA 35/2 was missing and presumed dead and now it shows up in stock at the Pentax Web Store (Link). Woo! Hoo! While it is still absent from the Pentax USA Web site and is not stocked by B&H (discontinued there) or Adorama, it is present on the Pentax Japan Web site, so apparently there is still hope.

Did they pretend it was discontinued just so they could re-introduce it with a higher price
