At least two new SLT's and a handful of lenses coming over the next few months.

Cant see there is a problem.

How many of them full-frame, to accompany the A99? Two from what I hear, which are updates of already existing focal length/aperture combinations. I'd love to shoot that Zeiss 50/1.4 but this is hardly going to change anything in my photography since there is already the 50/1.4 Sony which is superb aside from f1.4-f2.

Alpha enthusiasts are eagerly waiting for a 24-105 f4 fullframe. The Zeiss 24-70/2.8 and the 28-75/2.8 are hardly sufficient in this range, as they are either too limited in range, or too heavy to be qualified as walkaround lenses, or both. Sony discontinued the 24-105 screwdrive inherited from Minolta 3 years ago - without any replacement. That's where the "problem" lies.
