I think there are many more divisions that that, I would chance at another
two:
i) Those who would like to be connoisseur cant afford to be, so are very
selective in what and if they buy, sometimes accepting non top notch on a
cost benefit basis, but always wanting the best.
ii) Those who just must have the latest and rarest because of that not
necessarily because it's the best.

I believe this is pretty much what the camera division boss said in that
interview: Pentax will continue making "hit" products, which I translate
into meaning the popular volume stuff. But they would also concentrate on
making "legends".
I do think Pentax have realised the two-fold division of their customer
base; this division is easy to spot in this forum. 1) The ones who want a
good deal and don't want to spend much money; 2) The Pentax connoisseur who
pay whatever it takes in order to get hold of the great, legendary Pentax
products.
The latter group pay a fortune for legendary K and A* lenses and are willing
to pay the price for the Limited lenses.
