I'm quite aware. But Nikon has done that in one year. If Pentax can't keep up with, say, 1/3rd of the release rate of Nikon, they will have to give up the ghost.
Look at automobile manufacturers... Chrysler may sell 1/5th the vehicles of Toyota, GM, or VW, but for any given segment in which Chrysler wants to compete, they have to redesign at roughly the same rate as the competition.
