Question Lens opinion

I am thinking of buying a Pentax DA* 16-50mm f/2.8 lens as am wanting a faster and slightly wider zoom than my current kit lens the 18-55mm f3.5/5.6. My camera is a Pentax K20D, which as well as my kit lens, I have a 50mm f1.4 which I absolutely love.

When ever I have to do indoor low light, wide angle shoots I just don't find the kit lens to be adequate enough. It is fine for outdoor situations, but not indoor. I noticed in a past entry someone commented that DA* 16-50mm initially had some teething problems. I just wanted to know if anyone owned this lens and what they thought of it. I also wanted to know of any alternatives that there would be to this lens.
