Dow Jones Newswires -- September 28, 1999 DJ Kodak To Link With Cisco For PhotoNet Online Service By Alec Klein BOSTON (Dow Jones)--Eastman Kodak Co. (EK), building on its digital-imaging strategy, is expected to announce Tuesday that it has tapped Cisco Systems Inc. (CSCO) to help expand the photo giant's online services. Kodak, Rochester, N.Y., said it will use Cisco networking products and services, including routers, hubs, software and consulting, for its growing online product, PhotoNet. Consumers can order the Kodak service by checking a box on their film-processing envelope. Their pictures are scanned and uploaded to a Web site, and using a code, consumers can access their images, order reprints or download pictures onto their personal computers. With equipment from Cisco, the largest maker of computer-networking gear, the more than 38,000 U.S. retailers who are part of Kodak's PhotoNet network will be able to scan and upload images onto the Internet with greater speed and reliability, said Kodak and Cisco, San Jose, Calif. The two companies also plan joint marketing and sales programs. In addition to PhotoNet, Kodak is test marketing "You've Got Pictures," a joint-venture with America Online Inc. (AOL). AOL users will be able to send and receive digital photographs, much like their e-mail. Other recent digital efforts from Kodak include the introduction of a host of new film-less cameras. interactive.wsj.com
