And up until recently, they were still the state of the art flashes in the Pentax lineup with the 540FGZ. That said, the newer models don't use newer technologies. They just add some features, like WR and swivel head, but otherwise work the same. The P-TTL system hasn't had any new development in years. So, the older models work as well as the newer one.
Don't worry, the 360FGZ is old tech but still a fine flash. It will also work fine as P-TTL off camera flash in wireless mode. I use mine like this all the time, on a flash stand, and it does a great job.
