I am definitely looking at the "lower end" cameras (I'm assuming that's what you mean by "bridge"). The upper end cameras are nice but really don't do anything for me that the less expensive models don't do too.
The definition I'm used-to is that bridges are those SLR lookalikes with built-in (ie non-detachable) zoom lenses. They "bridge" the dSLR models to the compact P&S offerings.
The K100d super and the ist series look very appealing to me. The photos they make look very nice. Shake reduction is handy but not a compelling feature for me. I've handheld shots up to one second in the past without any problems. I'm just looking for something I can get into without spending a lot of money right now. ~Nick David Wright http://pedalingprose.wordpress.com/
The K100D Super also gives you a bit of "future-proofing" for Pentax glass. It is the earliest low-end Pentax dSLR to support SDM lenses. I use mine with the DA* 50-135 and the DA* 16-50 and love 'em both.
When I get either a K20D or K30D in the next few months I'll be able to use those lenses on both bodies.
