which means that both Nikon and Pentax are fully at the mercy of some 3rd party vendor's ability to develop a good sensor. Canon isn't. it takes deep pockets to play in the DSLR game, as Leica is finding out, and for a company that is on as thin a financial base as Leica, it may break the company if it doesn't deliver everything expected of a Leica. Pentax doesn't have the money to play at the leading edge, no matter how ambitious its engineers and CEO are.
