So what makes you think Pentax can do any better than Hassleblad,
Maymia, Leaf etc?
If no one is really selling any now, and the size of the potential
market is unknown, isn't it a risky move to develop a product that may
not sell in any great numbers?
Also, why is everyone assuming that the 645D will be so much cheaper
than the current products on the market?

Have to say it:

Look at the K10D. :-) While I appreciate the low price, it's got to be hard
to make money on a body that depreciates by 50% in one year. It makes me
wonder if they are still in the production line. Some of the stores selling
at $999 would probably have to lose money selling at $699. I saw an *ist D
online yesterday for $1299!
In fact at $699 - $100 rebate, I'd expect the K10D to outsell the K100's.
