I think the product will be a hit!!!! Think of how many customers you have that love the scanning capabilities of their full sized Ricoh MFPs. Wouldn't they love to have a compact unit with the same functionallity and the same color touchscreen? How many medical offices would love to have a tabletop MFP with the scanning capabilities of Ricoh's large MFPs???
The key will be the price. If Ricoh prices it too high it will flop.
