Yep I have the K28/2 and yes it's expensive but worth it. It's the floating lens elements that make it special and the lens was a Zeiss/Pentax collaboration.
Check-out the lens review for more info:
SMC Pentax 28mm F2 Reviews - K Prime Lenses - Pentax Lens Reviews & Lens Database
I own about 50 Pentax manual focus 35mm format lenses (no duplicates), not only is the K28/2 my best wide angle that I own but I would also say it's the best lens period.
Note I use all of these lenses on film cameras, so I already know how they perform on FF, however on digital FF results may very!
