Press release:
Ricoh releases GR World application for iPhone/iPad
One-touch viewing of GR Digital photos from around the world

Tokyo, Japan, December 14, 2010—Ricoh Co., Ltd. (president and CEO: Shiro Kondo) today announced the release of the English version of GR World, a specialized application for iPhones and iPads. This application enables you to view images on an iPhone or iPad that were taken with a GR Digital camera and uploaded to Flickr. The application can be downloaded free of charge from the App Store within the iTunes Store or from the iPhone/iPad App Store.

GR users throughout the world are photographing diverse scenes and moments and publishing the resulting images on Flickr. With GR World, you can easily view those images and enjoy them in slideshows, regardless of time and place. It is also possible to specify photo genres and bookmark your favorite photos for viewing them together.

It is our hope that GR World will be utilized not only by GR users but by many other photo lovers as well since it can serve both as a digital photo frame and as a tool for easily enjoying photos in your spare moments anytime and anywhere.
