linicard Squiprent Delivery
11 October 1956
1. I visited Eastman Kodak on September 27 to discuss the
llinioard stem and probable delivery dates for the equipment.

sates that, aside from the Processo
d
r ca
two tieMvrtitezs
already on band, the "S" camera will be delivered this month with
other related pieces of equip ent being delayed until as late as
1957. A copy of the delivery schedule is attached. Ifty
2. I hesitate to push Eastman too hard for delivery, for fear
we will experience the same "debugging" problems that EdAP suffered
when they insisted upon Camera delivery before Eastaaa was ready to
release it. Since its delivery six months ago, the Camera has been
undergoing modification or repair constantly, with the final result
being its return to Eastman for thorough "debugger". This has
delayed the If *y progran by several anths. In spite of the fact
that I feel Eastman is making a concerted attempt to effect delivery,
I think a discussion nf - -.,A a i-. - ,._ -
eight encourage Eastman to extend, itself even sore, so that egnipaent
delivery my be hastened.
