Yes, that's actually for free for those who bought K-1 :D

Also very probably the "reddish" screen colour like K-70, for night photog assistance. :)

Not only.
When you look at Canon's last issues, inflation is terrible.
E.g. EOS M-5 EVIL will cost around 1000€ by us, all plastic without sealing nor 4K, and low profile ergonomy for 30% more than K-70...
The best news in this kind of gear inflation trend, is that i-phone 7 too still costs more than last year's i-6....
The gap stays.

So, that first "rumor" is on time and was correct.
What's next ? :D

So for that, she probably desserves the nice red K-50 ? ;)

I don't agree at all...
K-mount fixed lenses do exist in the line-up, even quite good ones (DA 40/2.8 , 70/2,4 and DA*55/1.4 are nice example of FF compatible "portraits" lenses) and zoom lenses made such quality steps in the recent years, that Ricoh was just RIGHT to start with the f/2.8 15-200mm pro line.
I wouldn't acuse Ricoh of incompetent or missmanagement on behalf of lack of recent primes. Those are in the pipe and should come up by end of next year, not in 5 years, and as reported by asahiman, these lenses are the priority for now and the months to come.

And what if nothing new was announced ?
What if things are progressing smoothly and slowly as usual, and Ricoh is happy with the current situation, which leads more or less to :
- new 645 lens & APS-C wide zoom announced and released sometime end of 2016,
- new APS-C topclass 28/32 Mpix SLR in development, and released 6 months later than next Sony Alpha flagship,
- new FF fixed focal lenses in preparation for 2017 or later, same thing for theta and GR,
- future of Q and WG systems under business case challenge evaluation ?
=> RI's business as usual, their own way of life. :)

It should only be +100€ for K-1 and +50€ for K-3II, about 5% increase "due to change rates evolutions" since last year.

Well, i'm afraid this (1" sensor) is a weird road Ricoh should avoid, or not invest too much in : heavy selling sensor prices from Sony, and already mature market with many generations for Sony RX100 and Canon GX7/3... besides, m43 is on a steep slope.
There is more interesting stuff like 24 Mpix or FF GR to go excited upon ....
But f... a hell, why don't they rush on pocketable FF GR ?

Olympics are ending in a couple of days.
Period, end of line for an oversold ephemeral event.
Yet, if there was any relation with such an event and share values, just look at Nikon or Canon...
Or even, look at Nikon's share evolution since the time they announced Nikon D5, and the time it was released : - 30% ! :D
No need to write rubish.... never.
