An APS-C sensor with K-mount on a GXR style body will do anything the K-01 can do.

The Pentax acquisition was July 1, 2011. That's almost a year and a half to make this rather obvious module that would bring the strengths of Pentax lenses to the GXR body. It's kind of bizzare that they haven't done this already.

Bizarre it might be but suicidal to bring product to market half sorted out.  Think the K-01 as Pentax' "last hurrah" on that subject.  Ricoh would do their own version of this type of camera much better with a dedicated module.
