Or continue to do a good job with affordable high resolution APS-C cameras. Perhaps. Time and market forces will determine what strategy is best. But given the current economic constraints, "affordable" at more than 14 megapixels could be a good place to be.

The problem is, you sell those affordable APS-C cameras by impressing people (most of whom don't know anything) with your high end stuff. One of the crappiest cameras I've ever held was the original 6-megapixel Rebel-D, but Canon sold enough of those to buy a small country. They didn't sell because of how good the Rebel-D itself was, they sold because of how good (in public perception) the 1Ds was.
