It most likely will sell ok.
The general buying public will love the pop up screen , 10 MP`s, and KM outer space design of the camera . I`m not sure they will embrace the large size and weight though.
But at $1,000 it really has to make common sense to at least consider a dslr with a good kit lens regardless of the MP difference.
The average consumer isn`t going to be printing billboard photos . 10MP`s of resolution will be absolutely unecessary and overkill for 4X6 and 5X7 prints and their typical consumer geared home use computers with 256 MB of ram will most likely become bogged down and clogged will overstuffed files sizes they just don`t need.
However, Best Buy and other department stores will have the DSC R-1 in the display amid all the small consumer types and it`s prescence will simply dwarf all others demanding attention and generating interest and handling.
The dslr`s are around the corner in a locked case underglass. ( that`s how it is in our local BB )
Personally I like the whole concept and would prefer a one lens sytem myself but obviously the limitations and loss of numerous dslr advantages will be there for some time to come. The one lens systems are catching up in some ways but dslr / lens improvements aren`t standing still either.
