In a thread recently posted at the DP Review forums, the author (who claims to have tested the forthcoming Samsung NX10 mirrorless camera with interchangeable lenses) states that it will accept K-mount lenses with adaptor from the very begining; it is unclear yet whether this adaptor will support autofocus, but regadless, this is very good news for us Pentax users, as it means we will have an alternative to the well regarded micro4/3 system from Olympus/Panasonic.
In the mean time, I would prefer an original Pentax model in this category, but nothing has been heard thus far, so we better rely on something for real as the NX10. But mind you, this is just rumours at this time, as the official specs of the NX10 have not been published yet, to my knowledge.
The NX10 k-mount adapter isn't yet available. Sales informed me my NX10 would work fine with a Sigma Pentax lens. No one said it won't be AF able, so I'm still hoping
