If you want a super-compact carry around DSLR, then the D is not the camera you want.
Well yes, what I really what is something ME or OM2 sized, that takes great, cheap, interchangeable manual glass and has a 6MP sensor etc.
But AFAIK, it doesn't exist.
[edit] read your post properly now! - I want the DS not the D.
