With all the intellectual brain power, with all the patents, you would think they would take a spin on a few new ideas.

Really sad. The Rochester skyline, once with Kodak, and Xerox and Bausch, now highlighted with Health companies and Law offices. Not good for our future.

yeah it's not good when we aren't exporting.
We don't really export healthcare... that's primarily self-sustenance.
Although the UofR does have a lot of patents, and they do bring in patients from all over the country... it's not in huge numbers.
B&L does great business outside of the USA and it's pretty amazing how they are the ONLY trusted contact solution brand in Asia.
Paychex is doing well and branching overseas, but I wonder how long before it moves out.
Xerox has a ton of patents... but their core is still printing.

It's pretty safe to say at this point that printing on paper will soon be a thing of the past. It's nothing to base a business model on. It's nothing someone would or should invest in. Yes, printers will be around for a long time. Especially local, full-service printers. But kodak's model was based on paper before, and it failed miserably because they failed to realize the market had lost growth. Printing will remain, but will not have growth.

Kodak should be working on digital paper, digital imaging (especially for transition of film archives to digital), Photoshop processing (it used to have the best plugins), and medical imaging (re-absorb Carestream)

now highlighted with Health companies and Law offices. Not good for our future.

oh. you mean like Buffalo.

A new kodak camera that will work with Olympus and Panasonic Micro4/3 lenses?

That's the news out of Asia

The thing is that Eastman Kodak had nothing to do with it. Their name is licensed through a broker, and in this case the camera is made by Chinese electronics manufacturer. Kodak is just a purchased brand name to give their little known company some credibility.

Good luck with that.

has wifi connectivity and the ability to run apps going for it. Wide range of 4/3 lenses... but designed and built by a chinese company? I don't think I would buy.
