Kodak Press Release
New KODAK EASYSHARE Picture Viewer

Available for the First Time: A Credit
Card-Size Viewer with Big, Bright LCD Display
ROCHESTER, N.Y., May 24 -- Are you searching for a trendy yet
affordable gift for dads and new graduates, one that they’ll
actually use instead of tossing in a drawer after a week? Look
no further than the new KODAK EASYSHARE Picture Viewer, which is
available at retail stores worldwide beginning this week
(US$149).
This credit card-sized “digital photo album” can be slipped
into a pocket or purse, but is powerful enough to hold life’s
biggest memories. With the ability to internally store and show
up to 150 digital pictures with its crystal-clear, 2.5-inch LCD
screen, the EASYSHARE Picture Viewer is perfect for dads who
want to show off snapshots of the kids, or the graduate who
wants to keep pictures of hometown family and friends close at
hand. To view even more pictures, simply insert a standard SD or
MMC memory card.
Alternatively, as summer holiday plans take shape, buy a
Picture Viewer for yourself. It’s an ideal companion for sharing
pictures with friends while away from home. This tiny marvel can
even automatically update itself with your most recent favorite
snapshots—new pictures from the beach, amusement park or family
barbeque, for instance—simply by connecting it to a personal
computer.
“The Picture Viewer makes picture sharing convenient and
portable, not to mention incredibly easy,” said Jeanine Thiemel,
marketing manager for digital viewers at Kodak. “No longer will
you be embarrassed when asked by a friend to share your latest
pictures, only to pull out a handful of outdated prints from
your purse or wallet.”
The Picture Viewer lets people mark their favorites for
printing or e-mail with the simple touch of the exclusive,
red-jeweled Share button. By simply placing the viewer on a
KODAK EASYSHARE Printer Dock Series 3, pictures can be printed
in as little as 90 seconds at the touch of a button. The device
can also be connected directly to other printers that are
IMAGELINK Print System compatible or PICTBRIDGE technology
enabled.
