1. I am not talking about leaks. I am talking about a clear published
statement with reasons for their choice and with a rough time-schedule
of future products.
2. Pentax has not leaked any information to me... You keep writing
pompous mails on this list pretending to know something, and you know
just as little as we all do. Your secret sources have proven themselves
to be no more reliable than looking into a crystal ball. I require a
clear statement (from Pentax, not from you).

This is neither a philosophy nor a strategy. This is more like randomly
running in different directions, trying to make a buck from all sides.
No wonder so few NEW customers invest seriously in Pentax (I am not
talking about the MZ-60 buyers here)...
