G'day Paul thanks for trying to help.
I guess I just expected the camera to detect it has a wireless card installed - flu, Toshiba, no-name, whatever- cause it has a menu option which says 'wireless memory card'. It does not say 'Pentax exclusive O-FC1 card'. Also in the playback mode, if one pushes the bottom button on the 4 way controller, there is an option which reads 'Transfers selected images from Eye-Fi Card'. Again, I thought they meant a generic card. Is this not so?
I was also under the impression that others were able to access their generic wireless card with a Flu logo on it and operate control which allowed them to use on/off/auto functions
I'm simply trying to figure out if this is a bug in my camera, a bug in the card, or the way it is supposed to work.

Eye-fi and Flu are not just different brands of card, they are different technology. In my understanding, the cards which the K3 will actually recognize are the Eye-fi and the O-FC1.
This may well be the explanation. I thought all wi fi cards were basically the same tech. So eye-fi and wi-fi are different huh?
It seems my confusion comes from actually reading the manual...lol
