I understand people like their gadgets, though.
I'm one that likes gadgets, but the smallest, lightest weight wins out right now. I know I'll be tempted by the FF camera when it comes out, all of the people oohing and aahhing over it will definitely make me envious. But then all I'll have to do is go shooting with the K3 to convince me that if I want another camera body, I would be better off with a K-S2 than I would something even heavier than what I already have. I still may decide to buy a second S1 so that I can go out shooting with 2 cameras at the same time again. I found it too much of a problem to try to carry and shoot 2 dissimilar cameras, I found even the K5 and K3 disorienting.
A tilt screen might be nice, but I find the Pentax FLU card works fine for my needs (using a tablet or phone to control the camera) so I'm not so excited about the built-in wireless (it would be nice to not have to change cards when I want to use wireless, but that's a minor issue to me).
