I'll go look around, they seems to be floating right at the 550-600 mark ATM.
Put things in perspective, or, let's think of like this:
Pentax K5 is the camera that beats
all Canon DSLRs, from top to bottom, including all Canon FFs, in sheer dynamic range possible to achieve in an image. So while some crazy people are buying 5DII for $1500+, and spending even more on lenses that can make a difference, compared to that, paying $500+ for something of such a quality of craftsmanship that can deliver even better image quality is a bargain.
And not even that —
it's a sin even to overlook it. To paraphrase Kai from the Digital Rev, only people with brand astigmatism can skip over it.
I really hope Pentax will continue to use K5 style body and just change sensors inside from time to time, and keep it in its lineup. That camera is the the classic of modern age.
