Humbly report, Edward, now we are in total agreement.
1. Kodak has to please professional photographers.
2. Kodak has to respond agressively to the Fuji challenge - at all times, on all fronts.
3. Lean and mean better become the new Kodak motto, or else.
4. Kodak must learn flexibility, creativity, and positive thinking when new opportunities knock on their door, or else. ( Example: FOMA films which Kodak tried to eliminate is now being marketed in Europe, and possibly shortly in the US, by Paterson, under the name Acupan. Could have been Kodak, if only . . .)
4. No matter what the present state of digital photography, it absolutely is the future, and Kodak must succeed in it. In my humble opinion, their survival depends on it.
5. Short term, EK is a buy right now, but only if one is ready to push the sell button - at a moment's notice.
