PMA is remarkably quiet so far. I think it will be a "disappointment" 
for all the non-Nikon gearheads out there...

:-)

Well, I suppose: Pentax K20D sounds pretty good, but it won't be out 
until May. Olympus announces new firmware allowing IS to work with 
legacy lens!!! (another factor that tips the scale for me). Canon has 
nothing really exciting to speak of. No Zeiss digital rangefinder, no 
Epson R-D2, no Leica R-10 or M9. Pretty sparse picking...
