Should EK introduce Premium Economy?

I've wondered this for a while. Given that carriers such as BA, CX, QF etc all run premium economy cabins, I was wondering if EK would ever contemplate it.

My view is that the current J cabin on the 777 fleet is long overdue for an upgrade to fully flat product. Not convinced that EK should replace the 777 seat with the A380 seat. Personally I'd like to see something along the lines of the new CX J product (and AA).

Would you use premium economy on EK if it were introduced? What premium would you pay if it was offered?

PS No hidden agenda here - and no EK did not ask me to post this poll (for all the conspiracy theorists out there... )
