announcing more doesn't mean they are selling more. the market shelf life of a P&S digicam is a lot shorter than a DSLR. that's one incentive for abandoning the digital P&S market. in a commodity market, the one with the highest production volume wins because their cost per unit is lower. 2 and 3 megapixel digital cameras are a commodity and 4 is almost becoming one.
