TomC,
20 some years ago there was a study of companies market share and
profitability (PIMS). It has shaped thinking on the subject and
corporate actions since then.
In short, it looked across a broad array of markets

It's a new model so one might anticipate high sales shortly after release,
to be likewise eclipsed by sales of a subsequent model (Pentax or
competitor).

There is a waiting queue and you have to wait for varying time in some areas
before you can get your paws on it, which of course is very rare for the
