Hi Lori

HP would like to invite you to participate in an
upcoming delta program! The delta program is an
opportunity to evaluate and provide feedback on a pre-
release version of a new Photosmart Photo printer unit.
This device will allow you to print photos, documents
as well as print directly on CD/DVDs. If you are
selected to participate in this test you will be sent,
at no cost to you, a photo printer.

We are looking for a wide range of people, especially
anyone who is the main photo taker for their family,
and is interested in, but has not yet done much, if
any, digital photography. We are looking for people
who are interested in trying this new photo printer. If
selected as a participant, you will be sent everything
you need to complete the tasks free of charge. You
will have the opportunity to use the product for a 6-
week time period. At this point we anticipate the test
will start the week of June 26, 2006.

Your responsibility will be to use the photo printer,
then be directed in some tasks with
digital photos and printing, and then surveyed
throughout the 6-week period.

We want you to have fun using a product for a few hours
per week, and then submit your feedback. The main focus
of the program will be based printing photos and CDs
and providing feedback on the printer via a website.

If selected, the ‘All in One’ will either be shipped to
your home.

** To participate, you must be available to test the
product from mid June 26, 2006 through mid August
2006.** (Web registration required, see below.) You
will be notified of your regarding your acceptance into
this program within the next few weeks. Participants
cannot be employees
of an HP competitor.

PROGRAM INFORMATION
======================================
The HP Photosmart printer you will be evaluating is not
on the market today. The term “Delta” is used to refer
to a pre-release product still under development. As a
result, this product has not completed HP’s full
quality assurance program and may have errors or
defects. A Delta test helps us discover unknown errors
or defects and fix them before releasing the product.
We have learned that HP customers may use their
products in unanticipated ways; by placing these Delta
printers in the homes/offices of users, HP is able to
learn more about our customers.

During the testing period we request and encourage you
to report to HP any and all problems, issues,
suggestions, comments, ideas and/or questions regarding
the product. You will be able to easily communicate
with HP through your personal VOConline Feedback
Center.

There are specific areas of interest where your
feedback will be particularly valuable. These include:

* Product installation issues
* Error messages/defects
* Product ease of use
* Customer satisfaction levels

Our intention is to leave the product at your
home/office for the entire evaluation period. In
certain situations, however, it may be necessary to
remove the unit early. If selected, and assuming you
complete To Do items and Evaluations, you will be able
to keep the unit as a thank you for your testing
efforts.
