Smile thinking about upgrading to Pentax...your thoughts please?

Hi,
I am thinking of upgrading and I was hoping to draw on the collective genius here to help get a better picture...

I have an Olympus E510 that I've had for about 2.5yrs. I came to it second hand and its been brilliant for teaching me the basics and I have enjoyed using it a lot.

I have recently been finding the quality of my pictures is being limited by the camera, which is frustrating. My friend has a nikon D90 which I have used in situations where my 510 has been struggling and found it to be great.

Now I am in a position to upgrade, and using the D90 as my benchmark, I have short listed some cameras to try in a shop. My favorite of which would be the pentax k5 on paper. I know its not out yet and I would try a k7 in the first instance as an idea but I don't know any pentax users personally and was hoping for some words of wisdom from here about the k7 and k5 to help me make a more informed choice.

Thanks all in advance for any help!

Julip
