Unless it's something much better than the K7, both in terms of higher

My money's on Cotty NOT eating his hat.  They'll bring back aperture
simulators before we see a full frame SLR from Pentax.

Well, assuming that it's an APS-C sensor, the obvious candidate is
Samsung having got serious about the whole thing in terms of fab tech.
There's a lot that could still be done, but which hasn't been on grounds of cost; if any of that stuff is being done, Pentax could come out with
a ~2 kUSD APS-C K1 that has ~20 MPixels and superior performance.

I wouldn't care to bet on that, but it doesn't seem impossible.

I think that Pentax will end up somewhere around there, although probably not real soon. It certainly makes sense given their lens development program. Someone could step forward and "own" the high end of APS-C.
