I think it will, eventually, because the next round of DSLRs from Canon, Nikon, Pentax, et al will force them to cut the price. This is definitely a game of one-up-manship. I was surprised to learn that on one of the previous Kodak digitals (the 760, I think) you could insert a PCMCIA WiFi card

I thought about the Kodak camera. The problem here is finding the sweet spot of price and resolution. Once they start releasing APS senor lenses, they'll have a certain commitment to that format and the smaller sensor will always be a cheaper camera. After all, $1000 is cheap for a DSLR but
