is ricoh ever going to release the copy connect feature for the 1060 1075? i'm getting tired of telling customers to ignore that feature in the brochure.

I actually have one of the connect copy kits for the Aficio 1060 sold! I was originally told (in writing from Ricoh) they would be available "first quarter 2003". The last I was told (about 3-weeks ago) it wasn't even on the Ricoh Japan agenda...so God only knows when and "if" it will ever be available.
I spoke with Savin's product manager about this approximately 3 weeks ago and was told that the copy connect feature had been released by Japan and was in the Pennsylvania warehouse, but had then been put "on hold" by Ricoh for quality issues. She explained that this was the first time copy connect has been used with Next Generation Architecture and there have been some issues. While she would not give me a definitive date that it would be released, she did tell me to tell my customer that we felt confident that it would be before the end of July (but keep in mind that Savin has lied to me before!).
Thanks Brian!
