Kodak PalmPix Camera Now Shipping-New Accessory Turns Palm Handheld Organizers Into Digital Camera

Eastman Kodak Company announced today that its PalmPix camera is now shipping to retail stores worldwide and will be available online at www.kodak.com/go/shop this month. Providing an easy way to transform a Palm organizer into a digital camera, the PalmPix fulfills one of the company's strategic goals by expanding the number of ways people capture digital pictures.

"Pre-release demand has been terrific both in the U.S. and overseas as Palm users recognize the value that PalmPix adds to their organizers," said Phil Gerskovich, vice president, Eastman Kodak Company, and chief operating officer, Digital & Applied Imaging. "And we're working to fulfill that demand as quickly as possible."

Now, not only can owners of Palm III and VII series handheld devises manage schedule and contact information, they can capture and share pictures by simply connecting Kodak's new PalmPix camera to their organizer to take and transfer digital pictures. At a suggested retail price of $179, PalmPix enables people to capture images of important items and events, like notes from a conference room board, business associates, or trade shows.

PalmPix is compatible with Palm III, IIIe, IIIx and IIIc, IBM Workpad, Palm VII platform, and TRGpro. It is also compatible with Palm V and Vx models with a required Dock V adapter (sold separately). Included in the box are two Kodak AAA alkaline batteries, quick setup and user guide, and PalmPix software, Windows 95, 98 and NT 4.0 Installer, Presto! Mr. Photo-- for editing, sharing and storing photos creatively-- and Image Carousel software-- a slide show screen saver and wallpaper utility.
