I guess they are now ready for prime time ;-).

What interests me is that the camera is called GX-10.
It was originally labelled GX-2.

The Samsung naming logic is the opposite of Pentax:
with Pentax, a 10 is a better camera than a 100 and
(if it existed) a 1 would be better still. In
contrast, Samsung's 1 is cheaper than 10 and
presumably if the mythical K1D were ever to emerge, it
would be a Samsung GX-100!

The Pentax naming logic is also followed by Canon for
whom "single-digit" bodies are top-of-the-range,
"double digit" are mid-range and "three digit" are the
entry-level.

Nikon's single-digit bodies are top-of-the-range but
the mid-range bodies are three digit and the entry-
level models two digit, just to keep things confusing!
(But unlike Canon, Nikon consider themselves to have
only two ranges: consumer and pro. Thus, the pro
cameras are single-digit, while the consumer cameras
are multiple-digit, with the higher the number meaning
the better the consumer camera.)
