I was really weird, actually. In the instance where the Pentax does better, 
there is a Fuji Pictrography machine closer to us, occupying the bottom 
half of the frame. The thing we want to test focus on is a person beyond 
that. The Pentax is the only machine that locks on easily. Sometimes the 
E-1 hunts a bit for that. I even tried titling the camera so the person in 
the far end is in the dead center but it didn't help the E-1. I guess I 
should have found the spot-focus button or something.

Right now, the E-1 is my sentimental favorite and my wife knows it. If the 
*ist D doesn't fit so nice in the hands, then it's a no brainer.
