I'm sure there will, too. But I also expect any putative K30D would be aimed at or below the K20D price point. I'd like to know whether we were still likely to see a K2D or whatever; a somewhat more costly camera, perhaps, but with some of the more esoteric features such as a faster maximum frame rate (5fps or better), a second SD card slot and/or a wireless transfer option (maybe even as add-ons in a battery grip), &c.
Mind you, I would agree that they probably should address better AF first; if they don't do that they'll see more and more people leaving the fold.
