I Kinda thought K. Would be bailing out on their consumer digital business
sometime soon. Unfortunately my Dad headed off to a BigBox Retailer and bought
a new point & shoot without requesting any input from anyone including his son
with oodles of camera knowledge :-D and Yep, he bought a Kodak. Now of course
he is falling in love with using K's photo sharing website to distribute
pictures to famiy and friends via email and facebook!
Sigh...
I had kept my comments zipped hoping Kodak could avoid euthanizing their camera
businesses.
Guess I'll be calling him in a little while :-).
Peace,
R in Mi
