I have this lens for the Pentax (*istD) and can attest that you'll love it. I have the non-DG model and find it a pleasure -- and pretty light compared to the Bigma.
There's an ebay auction that currently stands at $570 but there's a day to go. Cameta sells through ebay for $699 new and that's probably your best deal for a new lens. I've purchased through them before with only great experiences.

Can't wait to try it out with my on order K10D.
Good luck in your hunt.
