As I understand, you can't change the lens? In that case it might become just another niche product (like Sigma DP, for instance)

Yes, it's a fixed lens. And so it's in the same niche as the Sigma DP and Leica X1.
I'd prefer achangeable optic, too. But with a fixed lens it#s of course possible to carefully optimize sensor and lens for each other.
Good news is that they chose a rather fast lens and a somewhat universal focal length.
