OK, explain to me how it was in the K1000, a $100 Complete camera? Explain to me how you think it needs signifigant "R&D"? They did this already in film camerras, duh.

Gimme a break, your acting like this is some incredibly New complex thing when its friggin childs play its so Simple and cheap. jco -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of William Robb Sent: Monday, October 09, 2006 8:00 PM To: Pentax-Discuss Mail List Subject: Re: The JCO survey ----- Original Message ----- From: "J.

Please, cost per unit and what that wold trickle down to the consumer as? Include R&D and manufacturing costs as well. Then tell us how many projected sales would be gained for their doing it vs. the number of sales lost on price point. You seem to know things that the people who I talk to don't know. What are the numbers, John?
