I'm looking at buying my first DSLR. Candidates right now are the Pentax K200 and the Nikon d60 or D5000. I'm leaning towards the Pentax because of the weather sealed body, image stabilization and a few other features. It's also a bit cheaper and money is a factor. I also have a soft spot for Pentax due to previous experience.

Ultimately, I don't think I can go wrong; both are highly rated and seem to be great cameras but I would appreciate opinions.

Additionally, a common piece of advice in these type of situations is to handle each of the potential choices to see how they feel. I love this idea but I can't find a dealer who carries the Pentax anywhere in Maryland. Any thoughts on this problem as well?
