Ok. I take my comment back then.

Depends. For video work... MF is quite common anyway, so that's not such a big drawback. For stills, totally. You'd want to have AF on this thing.
Lens selection is only one thing... people have bought into other systems already, getting them to switch is always going to be hard. Having to buy new lenses (not so valid of video because of the you're going to shoot MF anyway thing), even if they are available, is quite a problem. I suppose there are plenty of people out there who'd want a NX1, but are holding out because they are hoping that "their" brand will eventually offer something competitive, that won't require them to sell their lenses and buy new ones.
All I really need is a kit lens (18-55, something along those lines, preferably a bit wider), a 50, and something like an 80-200. That would be sufficient, so I guess Samsung could satisfy me. But the cost of switching... I'd rather have Pentax create something competitive within the next year or two.
