Peter, many thanks for your feedback, I'm very glad this thread has been of help to you. In all the the threads that I've started, this one would definitely have to be my most favorite and the one I'm most proud of due to the large contribution here from so many people with good knowledge on eyepieces and even some added humor to lighten things up.
This thread is a huge education for sure.
Ron,
*ahemmm* 
guess who's just ordered a Pentax (yeah him!). Enough said. 
Me thinx I've just had the last laugh.
I received my XW5mm yesterday!
Delivered inside a week of ordering and I was very impressed with the packaging- a very over-sized box with lots of plastic filled air bags. As usual, the XW came in it's bolt case.
I can't believe I'm admitting this, but I spent some time smelling the life out of that ep- I just love that new XW smell!
I was reading through the warranty and I'd actually forgotten about this- Pentax XWs have a
LIFE-TIME WARRANTY!
That applies to the original owner though.
