Ned's back! (but Retires from Pentax Ricoh Imaging Americas)

Well. Not back with Pentax news exactly, but he posted three entries on his Posterous blog over the weekend. See: Ned's Photo Journal.

It's all about the K-30 and Ricoh GRD IV, but Ned's back to posting. I expect other posts will follow?

Probably he's back to posting because he's finally got more time on his hands. Regardless, it's good to see him posting. I wish him well in his well earned retirement!

Indeed.
I still think that the fact he's officially replaced by a Japan official an interesting sign.

His legacy is that Pentax was dropped from virtually every brick and mortar store in the US.

This thread demonstrates why no one in a position of responsibility at Ricoh/Pentax will ever be openly posting to this or any other unmoderated forum.
