From vendor's perspective delivering a product "yesterday" in stead of "today" means HUGE extra investments, which in many cases cannot be justified by higher price. Canon has much more resources to run expensive R&D, but it pays back. Having the right product on time - it's the key to success. > It's a "safe" approach but easily a losing paradigm in a rapidly-changing > market segment. Certainly, as Pentax have no live DSLR product, this does not generate any cash to it. But who knows, maybe pushing it forward is too expensive. Only money matter... This is an absolute category.
