In fact Pentax had produced a prototype in I think 2008/9 which they "showed" at a trade fair and was widely reported, which was where the Pentaxians hopes were raised initially.
The market trends they are waiting for could well be the percentage of sales of FF in the DSLR market, once it hits a certain figure I think that will trigger them into action. However to arrive in the market with their first model that's capable of rivaling Canon or Nikon will be one hell and all of an ask!
BTW. The new Canon 7DII just shows what the Canon mice have been up to while the Pentax cat has been away!
