KODAK Mobile Service Eastman Kodak Company Since 2002, we have been working the California-based KODAK EASYSHARE Gallery (Ofoto) subsidiary of Kodak to create and refine the KODAK Mobile Service, Kodak's online service for camera phones. Working in close partnership with key executives and software developers, Steve had overall responsibility for the conception of the service and was a primary contributor to the definition of the business model and customer value proposition for Kodak's entry into the mobile imaging market. The KODAK Mobile Service has since been launched in partnership with Cingular in the United States, China Mobile in China, and O2, T-Mobile, and SFR in Europe. It is also available worldwide as a direct-to-consumer online service in ten languages. Steve Jarrett also personally acts as the software architect for all of Kodak's U.S. and European market mobile phone software. In early 2003, Steve also conceived of a Bluetooth-based product to automatically transfer all of the pictures from a camera phone to a user's computer as well as to automatically upload them to the KODAK Gallery online service whenever the user walks into range of their PC. The solution requires no software on the handset and works with over 500 million camera phones from Nokia, Motorola, Samsung, and Motorola. Steve was then given P&L responsibility for the project and personally managed a mix of internal and external teams responsible for the hardware and software design, development, testing, financial analysis, legal review, and marketing positioning and planning to commercialize the product in late 2007. Steve also led the licensing discussions on Kodak's behalf with a number of potential partners leading to a manufacturing agreement with Belkin. The resulting Belkin USB Bluetooth Adapter with KODAK Picture Upload Technology is available for purchase in numerous US online and retail channels.
