Fernando,

PITA = pain in the ass/arse.  And not just because it's more difficult to scan, 
but also because of the difficulty getting it processed -- having to mail it 
off to New Jersey.  Time was, Kodak had a lab here in Atlanta, and if you got 
the film to the neighborhood photo shop by 2:00 p.m., you could get it back the 
next day.  Those times are long gone, as is the popularity of Kodachrome.

And I don't know the technical reason why ICE doesn't work with Kodachrome.  
They just say it doesn't.  Maybe somebody else around here knows why.  They 
also say it doesn't work with silver-based film either, but I don't see a 
connection there.
