I think the price is still pretty uncertain. Besides, we still do not know
what they would offer eventually. Often a phototype did not reflect the
final product.

That's not too bad. At least I don't have to spend my money on a brand new
body every year, or lusting one (because there is nothing to lust).

I think Pentax has never showed their true emotion, let alone care or not.
But to be serious, I believe they have learnt that their top end bodies did
not sell very well (really belong to Nikon, Canon and Minolta), so they have
been very careful when it comes to top end bodies. Afterall, they cannot
make too many mistakes like the LX, the SFX series and the Z-1 series did.
And a product line is nothing without enough earning.
