I don't expect cheap large sensors anytime soon. The better sensor technology get the less is the need and indeed demand for larger sensors.
So do i, moreover i am afraid that as we can see with the "getting small" syndrome, there might not be such an interesting marketing space for big sensors in the future, at least for the "public" as opposed to "professionnal" segment...
And if you look for example to contemporary "mode and luxury shooting", the market seems to be well enough into the hands of high grade medium format industry, and i think it will be difficult for Pentax to make things change against Hasselblad or Phase One.
But of course i would love to see the birth of any 3-sensor 24x36 SLR.
