To me this exudes lack of commitment.
More likely a lack of budget. It is obvious to me that Pentax simply can't afford to put out everything that us enthusiasts would like to see. I think this is why they've pretty much dropped film cameras altogether: they know they have to focus on digital, or they'll end up like Minolta.
I think things will have changed dramatically for Pentax by the end of this year, for better or worse.
