Compare it to other cameras:
DxOMark - Pentax K7
Try against the Nikon D90 and Canon 550D, really the closest competitors at the price point right now. Keep in mind the K-7 framerate is considerably higher than the other 2.
Then compare to the K-x.
Then throw in the Nikon D700 and see just how good the K-x is.
But when you look at the charts and graphs, the #'s are within a whisker of each other for the K-7 and its competition. The K-7 with the K-x sensor would be a killer.
