Wow - that's surprisingly good news! That's the 1st I heard Pentax would warranty a grey market camera (NOT saying yours is, but Matt saying they wouldn't distinguish between them).
Also 1st time I heard that Pentax Imaging is just fine with other people shipping Pentax cameras they buy overseas here for resale (the very definition of "Grey Market"), or that they changed the warranty policy as listed on their web-site "...This warranty only applies to PENTAX photographic equipment originally distributed in the United States by PENTAX Imaging Company, 633 17th Street, Suite 2600, Denver, Colorado 80202".
Atleast you know you are getting your camera - THAT is what really matters! Enjoy!
