Roger,
I think the biggest problem that the S2 had was poor product planning. Lenses were not readily available, lens family was not revealed, accessories kept secret. Now that it is older and some lenses available, the S3 has to hit a homerun in features in order to convince the public to buy into the system. The market for MFD can go with a complete system in Phase or Hasselblad or use the crystal ball to predict the S system. A complete system approach is far more desirable in the long run. Those waiting on the sidelines have many more choices today at less cost than the S system, you can only live on legend for a short time before you have to produce.
