Pentax Optio WG-2 is Coming

Posted at the Adorama already, see:-

My own guess is that it is just a WG-1 body replaced with a new sensor, i.e., the same Sony 16M CMOS one in 1/2.3" used in the new Optio VS20 (and actually various current models of Sony DCs already), whilst the sensor used in the WG-1 is a 14MP CCD.

Well, it seems that these waterproof and shockproof DC models of Pentax have been updated every year, announced in Spring and market right before the Summer.

I know you like your WG-1 But I thought the image quality was terrible.

It seem they haven;t revolutionised this category for a while, every year it;s just some tiny tweaks with a new sensor and worse image quality.
