That sums it up. P&S
killer. Full manual, good high ISO, SR, raw, interchangeable lens.
I have a canon digital elph and my first Pentax was the Optio S4 (the one that fit inside an Altoids tin), but after handling the K10d for a while, I don't even want to touch it.
The G9 is good, but it's $$ and it's still large and the IQ is not as good. I've read decidedly bad reviews about the Sigma DP1.
The K100d Super would have some synergy with the K10d. Without totally relearning all the muscle memory controls (I think). And the DA35 is my favorite lens, so the DA40 would probably work for me in 85% of situations.
The Oly or a superzoom P&S don't appeal to me, too many compromises for not enough gains.
Sigh, but I've never seen the K100d in person, and if it's really just about the same size/weight as a K10d as Gooshin says, well, hmm. Plan B? There is no plan B? Well, okay, the SD400 still works.
