Yes the QA is being forced on us from what currently is being dissplayed on the Waltheramerica webpage...... in a few variations of color ......

9mm             = black
.40               =black
.40               =desser sand (which I think looks great)
9mm compact =black

I assume its marketing at it's best to reduce price and compete with GLock and alike..
I just bought me another P99AS this time in .40 .... now all that is left is the 9mm P99compact..... I also noticed that the .40compact is not on the German Walther page anymore...

Quote[/b] ]   I have heard discussion regarding DAO P99's.  Is that a separate variation?

Yes.  IIRC, that would be the P990.  That's a true double action, while the QA is Glock-action.

pictures I saw of the P99DAO looked more like the Glock-action as far as the trigger goes...which is going to be still available in Europe

where the P990 and P99QA did not have that little Glock like safty built in the trigger......

looks like for 2006 things changed a lot P99QA.....The trigger travel is approximately .31 inches with a trigger force of approximately 8 lbs
