Thats all well and good, spin doctors are really worth the money. But its been what 4 years since they started this project, if time is money in business than the 5 year girl on the corner selling lemonade seems to have more sense. How long does it possibly take to bring the DSLR on the market when they had an almost working sample about a year ago. The only other explanation is that the first non working demo's were just that, I don't think they had anything concrete at that time and just hobbled something together to keep their image and have since been working on the real thing.
