I think they won't make a camera with the ergonomics of K3iii and lower specs in terms of af/buffer. It would seriously undercut the sales of the K3iii.

I think the lower specs APSC camera will have a smaller battery, single SD slot and perhaps more retro-inspired design so that the K3iii is for "pro-sumers" and the KPii or whatever it's called would fit people who need a smaller and more stylish camera

Here on DPR Pentax forum I have seen loads of excellent photos taken by users with KPs... and almost every time I think to myself "Wow, wonderful shot! Must have been taken with a small stylishcamera!... "

The stylish look gives you the confidence to just go for it!

p.s., because it is a small stylish camera I was able to sneak my KP + DA70 into a sporting event recently because it did not look like a serious camera to security.  My wife in her bag had my 55-300 PM + 1.4xTC.  There can be advantages to looking like a cute camera.
