Why did you upgrade to K10d?

The Ds is reputed to be a much faster handling machine.  I get ~6 raw 
images shooting the D and ~5 shooting the Ds before the buffer fills.  
The Ds clears the buffer much faster.  It does make a difference.  In 
most circumstances I grab the Ds mostly for other reasons.  That said 
the way I shoot I'd rather have a 6 shot buffer and a slower bus than a 
three shot buffer, (like the K100/110), and a much faster bus.  Right 
now the K10D is on the horizon, but still just a bit out of reach.
