I've noticed two boxes for each of the AF points in the AF grid. Does this mean that the thinner inner box is used to indicate the points selected and the thicker outer box is used to indicate the point(s) actually in focus? (This is similar to the behavior I've seen on Canon DSLRs with Intelligent Viewfinders.)

I'm most concerned about when the viewfinder overlay lights up and how the points are displayed during continuous AF and when selecting AF points (especially when in 9-point or 25-point modes). That's of potential significance during sports shooting. (I know the K-1 isn't ideal for sports but 6.5 fps in APS-C mode is adequate for many situations, and the improved AF and new AI metering algorithms should make it competent for fast action. The K-5 at 7 fps was already fast enough for my usage; I'm more concerned about the keeper rate.)
Keep it up, Pentax! Let's hope this new tech trickles down to APS-C with faster burst shooting and further AF improvements.

Is anyone able to post a demo of the new LCD overlay in the viewfinder of the new K-1? I'd like to get a sense of how it works, because I'm wondering how it behaves during focusing, when selecting AF points, etc. Is it similar to the Canon Intelligent Viewfinder?
