Yep, the K100D also has ISO 3200 mode, which is practically useless given the noise it produces. The dust removal could come in handy since the K100D is not weather sealed like the K10D is and easily picks up sand particles while on the beach. All things considered, the K100D non-super is probably the best bang for the buck out there.
actually, i disagree. i use both k100d and k10d, and often when i'm out with the k10d, i miss that extra stop of speed. the k100d grain is as good or better then 3200 speed film, for sure. if the color noise gets in the way, then it usually makes for a good black and white shot (and, the grain looks more natural that way to boot). but, i agree, for the cost k100d is excellent.
