[filmscanners] RE: Polaroid's future

["Hemingway, David J" <HEMINGD@polaroid.com>]

Jeremy,
Not right now. Between you and I , I expect the scanner business to be sold
off. Several companies are bidding. After that we will see. I expect but am
not sure I will be part of the new entity.

One promised new product which disappeared when Polaroid went into
Chapter 11 was the SS4K bulk slide feeder. Now that the dust has
settled, is there any sign that this might be resurrected? I
understand that it was very close to production at the time it was
killed.
