Pentax K series

After some good advice from a member here I'm looking very seriously at a Pentax K-r on the basis of it being
1.12 MP ,
2. not requiring modification for IR thus the camera remains stock standard and therefore totally usable as designed ( good on the home front too)
3. having live view which I'm thinking to be a real plus and also
4. cost at around $700 fitted to the scope.

I am mindful however that most use modified Canon or Nikon but being a total newbie with a DSLR I wonder if there are any other Pentax users who could comment to help me make up my mind. Is it only recently that Pentax have produced cameras as capable as this seems ( to me ) to be
Thoughts appreciated
