   This application was written in my spare time from information
   gathered on Kodak's WWW site.  I do not work for Kodak, nor do
   I sell these cameras.

   This application should work with any version of OS/2 from 3.x to 4.x.
   I am uncertain if it will work with OS/2 2.x.

   This application was written for use with Kodak's DC210 digital
   camera and the accompanying serial cable.

   This application is very simple to use.

   Basically:

   1) make certain your camera is plugged in using the serial cable;
      NOTE:  the infra-red transfer is NOT supported!
   2) make certain that a memory card is inserted in the camera;
   3) set the mode dial to "CONNECT";
   4) turn on the camera;
   5) run "DC210.EXE".

   !  If you mount a serial port over the network, you can download      !
   !  images onto a computer while the camera is hooked up somewhere     !
   !  else on the network!  On my home PEER network, I have the camera   !
   !  hooked up to serial port 1 of one particular computer (called      !
   !  "dolphin") while I type the following on a 2nd computer:           !

   with my DC210 without any problems.
