That's not an official site- just someone who reserved a domain it looks like.

Well it looks like the current 645D. I see no reason this should be a teaser for anything. It is just about showing off the flagship model I think.
If it is a 645D with a new sensor I better start saving

i bet this is not a Pentax official page.

The Whois Pentax-RicOh.com - Pentax Ricoh don't indicate PENTAX-RICOH as owner, but a cong bin, and the billing contact is in China, and is not in a Ricoh or Pentax building.

What is cnpentax? Just a Chinese forum?

Looks like the cnpentax.com folks dabble as domain squatters hoping for a buyout.

Definitely a "move along, nothing to see here" kind of site.

This is definitely not a teaser, it's not even remotely official but it's made to look like it is - it's a fraud.
