Assuming that they make 11x as much profit on a 645d they'll come out ahead.

sell at least 10 FF bodies for very 645D body they'll sell.

I think it will attract pros moving up from full frame. It's an opportunity to 
go to the next level without making a huge investment. I suspect it will sell 
well.

Mere mortals will start getting on board when the first used cameras hit the 
market. That won't help Pentax camera sales, but it will expand the market and 
lead to lens sales. It could be a real coup for Pentax. A much smarter 
strategy, IMO, than trying to compete in full frame.

The question is, will it sell in the volume it needs to be profitable,
considering many MF photographers have, annecdotally, switched brands?

I'm thinking that anyone with a half dozen or so 645 lenses will really be
trying to buy one of these things.
