While I accept your sentiment, the correct term is *moot* point :)

EVERYONE should have at least one spare battery!
Yeah, sorry about that. It's an amazing machine.

The battery on the KP isn't bad. In 18 days in Italy I switched batteries maybe 3 times. And that was a lot of shots.
The build quality is excellent. Have you actually handled one? The small grip was never an issue, and I'm 6'3" with footballer's hands.
Not as good a sensor as the K-1? Well it certainly isn't as big, but I now have several superb A3 prints on my wall from the trip. You'd be hard pressed to tell them from last year's K-1 shots from my UK trip.
That said, I still prefer the K-1. I have a couple of ultra-wide options already (DFA15-30 and FA20), and giving my other full frame lenses room to breathe is important. I like using an IR remote control. I like the button layout, and the built-in GPS. Not having a built-in flash is a non-issue.
