Olympus to focus on high end cameras. When is Samsung getting this?

From a recent interview with Oly:

http://dc.watch.impress.co.jp/docs/news/interview/20131205_626374.html

"Olympus says they will focus on high end products like the OMD because these are selling better than PEN cameras"

I think the message is clear. Ppl still investing in "real" cameras (and not just happy with smartphones or cheap P&S) prefer prosumer models, ala OMD-EM1.

All the other "mid level" models simply are less interesting.

Samsung, in this moment, has a nice mid level model (NX300) a very weird high end model (Galaxy NX, which is high end only for the price, since for all the rest is the same as NX300 minus physical controls, plus an old EVF from NX20) and an old mid-high end model (NX20).

When is Samsung releasing a prosumer NX30 with a new sensor, new EVF, big buffer, faster AF, IBIS? Please, Samsung, learn from Oly.
