i went to the focus show at the NEC recently and spoke to the Export Sales man from Ilford,   I had met him briefly at the Ilford factory, lovely bloke -cant recall his name...Simon maybe? 

Anyway  he did say that Ilfords head honcho was off to see Polaroid about the licencing issue, so they are trying!  Although being realisitc I wouldnt hold my breath,   seems a very costly and complex thing.   

I do wish they would though!
