ORIGINAL POST
On the concrete news front, Pentax just announced the Optio VS20 dual-shutter compact-zoom. On the rumor-front, the Twitter account of Valentin Sama of DSLR Magazine posted rumor-tweets about the rumored Pentax K-mirrorless camera. The rumor-tweets, translated in English by/via Catetoblog, say the Pentax K-mirrorless will use the classic K-mount, it will not have an optical viewfinder, and it will be slightly smaller than the K-r. On the negative side, the tweets hint of ...ugliness! In a newer tweet, he mentioned/speculated/rumorized "probably the same flange distance" (as K-mount DSLRs) [computer-translated]
UPDATE: Similar specs are being rumorized at Quesabesde (computer-translated)
