Lately I have been thinking about upgrading from my K20D. I have heard from several that the K5iis would be a noticeable improvement in IQ even at lower ISO, but I am inclined to agree with your opinion here. I like the extra features of the newer cameras, but can do without them. Having moved from 35mm film to 6x7 Medium format, and adding later 645 film, I realize how much an IQ jump it takes to make a difference in my area, which is landscape photography.
For my needs, I think I can hold out for a more significant improvement at low ISO performance before upgrading. In some situations, I can get an 8x10" print that gets close to those I made in MF film already. It is interesting to me that few film photographers I knew spent over a thousand US dollars for their hobby. Today I read so many who do that every few years in digital.
