Vivitar cameras certified on Lycoris
Jan. 09, 2003

Vivitar and Lycoris announced that many of Vivitar's USB Vivicams have attained full hardware certification on the Desktop/LX Operating System platform. With Vivitar's new line of digital cameras being carried by retailers such as Walmart and Target, the consumer-driven camera company has announced support for the new Desktop/LX operating system on a variety of its new digital camera models. Certified models enjoy simple use and support under Desktop/LX Update 3, shipping soon from the Lycoris.com web site, retail partners, and on PC's directly from Walmart.com.

"Desktop/LX users will be able to plug in the certified Vivitar cameras and go - a camera icon will immediately appear,"states Joseph Cheek, President and CTO of Lycoris. "Users will be able to view and edit pictures and watch recorded video directly from the camera - in short, everything they expect to be able to do with their camera. With Desktop/LX Certified Vivitar cameras, people have an affordable option they can trust right out of the box for capturing, processing and sharing digital images and video."

The new Desktop/LX Certified Vivitar digital cameras include:
  • Vivicam 355
  • Vivicam 3550
  • Vivicam DSC-350
  • Vivicam 3615
  • Vivicam 3620

Vivitar's certified cameras now bear the Desktop/LX Certified Logo, and both the Vivitar.com and Lycoris.com websites will show this logo next to each camera. Certification logos will eventually appear on the boxed product packaging as well, where consumers can verify Desktop/LX Certification at the retail level.

Tom Piehn, Director of Imaging Technologies for Vivitar added, �One of our key customers, Walmart, is leading the way with Lycoris Desktop/LX based PCs and as a significant supplier of digital cameras to Walmart, we are putting our new digital cameras through the Desktop/LX Certification process to ensure maximum customer satisfaction.�
