Will be there Pentax K-5 IIs silver special edition before K-3? Any suggestions?

I doubt Pentax is going to beat a dead horse by introducing a fourth special edition featuring the K-7/5 body, but who knows!

Also, I know how everyone is assuming that the next DSLR will be named the K-3

There will be a K5IIse (special edition) followed by a K5IIrse (r stands for "retro" and se "special edition") then the K5IIsse (sse - silver special edition) then we will see the updated K5 named the K3.

It is funny, considering there wasn't a K-9. The whole 7->5 jump seems to make people thing Pentax knows how name things. For heaven's sakes, they put an asterisk into a Camera AND a whole line of lenses.
