I work retail and all Kodak printers, with the exception of the small photo printers, are crap. We've had so many returns on these with complaints about smearing and having to replace broken printheads about every 6 months. It seems to me they skimped on the printer to lower ink prices for this campaign.

@Needz: I tend to concur, having had some experience with Kodak printers. I think the problem is that people think of printing photos, and the Kodak name inspires confidence. It's a mistake to equate Kodak's knowledge of photography and film developing to printing color images with inkjet technology. For now I vastly prefer Epson and HP inks and printers for the closest to true photo quality. They cost more, but the results are worth it if you want decent photos that don't smear or fade.

The ink is cheap. The demos I have seen look about the same as other inkjets. ALL inkjets have a common issue. If you do not use them regularly, ink dries and clogs the print head, at least on the Epson, Canon, and HP units I have owned. That dates back to the first HP DeskJet 500 I had which used EITHER a 3 color OR a black cart. When you replace the rather expensive HP cartridges you get a new print head. on the others, if the head is clogged, you might get lucky, or you can buy a new printer or print head. Kodak can provide a new print head. Basically inkjet technology has its limits.

I have no need for the printer but I will say that I do wonder why Kodak keeps reusing names. I mean how many products have used Kodacolor? I mean Ektar has gone to lenses and different types of film before being reused again by their newest film.

They better not reuse the name Kodachrome though ...

Doesn't look bad... specially for that price.
I wonder how bad it is to hold a Blackberry shaped camcorder to make those movies.
But well, since it has a tripod mount, we could probably make some DIY magic with a bike grip or something...

Kodak seems to make the best pocket cameras at the moment. I got the Zi6 for my girlfriend and she loves it. Filled 2 16GB SD cards while in Germany and the quality is really good for this type of camera. A friend has a MinoHD and we took some 4th of July videos with both and the Kodak is much better. And the price, just perfect for the quality.

Nicely done, Chen. I lol'd, I :'('d, I couldn't watch the video, so I can only assume your take on the subject matter was equal parts accurate and eloquent. Tip 'o the hat, good sir.
