I'm pretty good with wave physics and I don't see you point. Pentax Nikon and Olympus are going with smaller sensor because that's what's available for affordable cameras.

I told him I was waiting for Pentax to come out with a full frame. At this, the NotNikonIt guy next to him almost fell to the floor laughing. "Pentax will have a full frame DSLR when pigs fly!", he said. I said, "I think they're trying to train them now."
Dude, he's telling the truth. And anyway, a 35mm-sized sensor on a dSLR requires a much larger lens mount to work as well as on film of the same size; it's just a matter of physics. This is why Pentax, Nikon, Olympus, and KonicaMinolta are going with smaller sensors. If you look at all the facts, it just makes sense.
If you must wait for something, I'd suggest only waiting for high-ISO noise to come down, because you're going to be waiting a *very* long time for a 35mm-sized sensor in a Pentax body. The current APS-C system is not as horrible as you think, and it's only getting better.
