The 645D is, I think, aimed at pro users - studios that does portraits, advertising, nature/postcards or fashion photographs. Not casual shooters or amateurs. The 645D was not made for the family album etc. but for people who get paid to make pictures. The same goes for Hassies, Rollies and Mamiyas. Canons are made for sports shooters and journalists - for "constantly on the road" photogtgraphers.
Pentax *ist D is for people that take pictures while doing other things - like me - I'm a planner/architect who does landscapes, city-scapes, some portraits and some casual or nature shooting.

As will be the 22MP Mamiya ZD which will likely be in users hands well before the Pentax offering and which has a well established user base as it utilizes the excellent Mamiya 645AF lenses.
