my understanding is that are Pentax not part of the four thirds consortium, and there is now way for them to 'complete' alone with a Rangefinder type approach as the PK registration distance is just far too big

This innovation strikes me as potentially changing the digital market quite fundamentally. If Olympus/Panason/Leica make a cracking interchangeable lens Rangefinder that has "decent image quality" (however you choose to define that, decent dyna,mic range that can be cropped to a good 12x8 at 300dpi is mine) then I would get one to complement my K10 tomorrow - if technology marchs on a pace (as you would expect in a relatively immature technology like this) then in 3 years it will beat the K10 and be a no brainer on convenience alone
