Oh, I agree completely!  One wonders what they were thinking with the
110 cartridge, too.  Tiny image area and no pressure plate to keep the
film flat.

The point simply was that Kodak has a long and inglorious history of
introducing new film formats, often of questionable technological merit,
selling a bunch of cameras for them and then pulling the plug, leaving
the consumers that did buy into the format high-and-dry.  I would think
hard about this before jumping on the APS bandwagon.
