Ah OK. Now I see where you come from.
However, what we're talking about in this thread is not a Pentax leak. It's the copy of a publication made by the RRA, the South Korean Radio Research Agency.
The RRA is a governmental agency in charge, inter alia, of registering/certifying products which emit electromagnetic radiation; in this case, a battery charger.
Ricoh Imaging filed months ago for this registration. They had to provide sample units, have EMR tests made by an independent lab certified by the RRA, answer any questions asked by the lab or the RRA itself, etc.
In short, they have absolutely no control over the timetable of such registration (save for knowing it takes approximately
x months from filing to registration).
Therefore, this registration being published on the 6
th of September doesn't give any hint other than the corresponding product being in the process to be brought to market. In a week, a month
or later™.
