Nokia and Kodak in picture printing partnership
Nokia and Estman Kodak Co. announced an agreement today allowing Nokia users to store, print and share digital pictures using the Kodak Picture Center Online service. The online service started operating in Europe this week and will be unveiled in Asia later this year. A similar service offered by Rochester, N.Y.-based Kodak called Ofoto is already in place in the United States, according to Silicon.com.
This follows an announcement made last week, between Kodak and Carphone Warehouse for an instant photo kiosk-service to be rolled out in their shops (cf Camera Phone "Order Stations").
And according to an article in Europemedia, owners of the Nokia 7650 and Nokia 3650 picture phones have access to more than 1,500 Kodak Picture Makers kiosks across the Asia Pacific, allowing them to print pictures on paper, as stickers, personalised calendars, or enhance the pictures with special templates from a wide selection of themes.
