Well, if there's one great mobile OS that's open source (or will be) it's webOS. Some here may not know it, but it was developed by Palm under the direction of Jon Rubinstein (of iPod fame), then bought by HP and temporarily killed off by Leo Apotheker (ex SAP) during his disastrous less than one year tenure as CEO at HP. Meg Whitman (ex eBay) is now in charge of HP and she has resurrected webOS and put it on a roadmap towards open source.
Well, I'm just dreaming... I'm a webOS fanboy (I admit that) so it would be great to see that OS on a Pentax camera.
OTOH, regardless the OS, I still need to see the first camera App that can provide a good photography experience...

I expect a K-01 rather than a Q, but perhaps this is wishful thinking having just bought a Q (and not wanting to have the 'old' model from the start ;))...
The Q being as small as it is, I expect it doesn't leave much space for additional electronics, whereas the K-01, as I'm sure we will all agree, seems to have plenty of room available in its (oversized) body?
Of course it could just be a new module for the GXR.
