You may be correct that they may not have the resources, however it was likely a far larger and more costly effort to start production of a DSLR to begin with. And I reiterate, it's my belief that going 645 (if they do) as opposed to FF 35mm was a wrong decision, and probably more costly than FF 35mm.
What they need to do is stop flushing money down the toilet on gimmicky compact digicams. >From a very recent report: "Olympus and Hoya -- the maker of Pentax-brand cameras -- have been suffering from slowing global demand and steep price declines for compact digital cameras".
