The D500 is 24 megapixel granted not full frame but data sizes are roughly the same and that shoots at 10fps. If we have maxed out full frame FPS at 6.5 because of mirror technology has ground to a halt then it is sad news.
I am sure Pentax Ricoh will come up with the goods

That was the reason for most, true ...... and welcome back Gary (cabstar) and George from me as well ....
But Gary, I think your signature message is in need of an update .....either that or your equipment list

I'm one of those ex Pentax now Nikon shooters and to be honest I am not surprised by their current woes.
I've been shooting Nikon for I can't believe it three years now. In that time I have seen their flagship lenses like the mk1 70-200mm VR no longer repairable leaving me using an ancient af-d 80-200mm to maintain reliability.
A D750 with the most appalling iPhone / android app you have ever seen that only allows single RaW image transfers over wifi.
A D750 purchase that apparently although they call it a Pro level body does not entitle the buyer to Pro-Level standards of service despite being a professional.
An issue within two weeks of purchasing my d750 showing none compatibility with my af-s 28-70 2.8 being told by the Nikon Rep there is no issue with that combo eventually getting a replacement body that has the exact same issues with a lens that works perfectly fine on all other models I have owned or tested in.
A D750 that hasn't had a firmware update for over a year now I think and a d600 in over two years.
To be honest they truly deserve to go out of business.
Come on pentax bring out a higher rate full frame body so I can come back before I jump to Fuji

I also see it's built on the dreadful eye-fi software the same company that just totally stopped supporting all its wifi cards except the mini range.
I would have zero confidence in this app for photo storage based on my previous eye-fi experience alone.
