new Ricoh gr camera has clues to upcoming Pentax models?

Fired many shots. Didn't kill anything.
Well done Pentax! create an APS-C compact, but put it into a classic Ricoh camera body and voila! A wonderful small APS-C compact.
I may get one in time, but I have just bought a K-01.....

Some Cameras
I'm hoping they now come out with a K mount module for the GXR....a 24mp APS-C module would be great.
just the same body, with a k-mount would make an awesome k-02!

Clearly pleasing two camps could be difficult.

There's going to be a disparity for a while here. The GR has taken on some Pentax attributes but the menu system is Ricoh.
Clearly pleasing two camps could be difficult.
true but the tav mode on the dial is pentax... and let's be honest... the menu's and graphics are just a firmware style.. easily the simplest way to distinguish two cameras that might otherwise be identical components underneath.. this camera could EASILY share the electronics with several pentax cameras....
drop the electronics in a different body with a revised firmware is easy enough..

I see the familiar Pentax Tav mode on the dial.. and the "effects" filters and the familiar aps-c sensor... but the use of the ricoh hotshoe tells me there is a need to distinguish this model from Pentax..
I suspect the k-02 would include much of the same internals as this camera, in a kmount body...
