Sounds like a good time, but too bad I'm 6 hrs away from the closest area. Hopefully this can generate some more pentaxians, I'm lonely here in Jacksonville haha

That probably won't happen until they actually start more extensively selling Pentax gear south of Atlanta. You'd never know that there are actual Pentaxians further south the way they ignore their existence. If they really wanted to make this work Jacksonville, Tampa and Miami should have been added to this list.They're not exactly little cities anymore. :P

Well, this forum "is" where it's at, if you are one, grin, and Pentax does definitely keep an eye on it. We've seen that. The term is used off board though. The guys and gals in my local camera group were using it long before I joined here for the few Pentax people they had. Though I have been called The Pentax Queen as well, lol. As in "Ask The Pentax Queen" over there...I don't think it's generally meant as an insult, except maybe from this one guy who is a total Canon snob, lol...

I received that as well. I thought it was a sign that I'd been spending too much of my moolah on Pentax.
I would definitely go work for them if they cover my travel costs.
