Thanks! Found it: Coca-Cola Freestyle ™ Links | Facebook

How unfortunate that none of those locations are anywhere near Los Angeles.

Default The Valley isn't that big

Since when isn't Anaheim near Los Angeles? Newport, Huntington, Orange--I don't know Southern Cali that well, but generally speaking, you can get to those if you want. I know it's not a quick stroll, but some of us live 15-20 hour drives from a machine and would kill to be just an hour away or less.

Hopefully it will come to our metro area (Pittsburgh, PA). I wouldn't mind having different flavors of Fanta (strawberry, pineapple, grapefruit, and other flavors of Fanta). Regular old flavors of coke, sprite, orange, grape Fanta, gets old after a while.

Things are looking good for the Freestyle - Coke is investing $100 million to expand their Atlanta syrup plant to produce the concentrated flavor cartridges.

And again the mention of the 40-50 market expansion in 2010.

Some questions.

1. Is this new machine sort of like the old school movie theater fountain
machines?

2. Are there pre-set flavors like Coke Cherry or do you have to select cherry and then Coke?

3. Any idea of the typical price point?

4. Will these machines be more labor intensive in terms of maintenance?

Zabe, there's a Youtube video on page two that shows how it works. But basically, there is an opening screen with the main brands, and when you select the brand, it brings up a submenu with the flavors that brand is available in.

I need to open a youth tube account, I'm too lazy to open one now.
I did go back and found the list of flavor choices.
OMG....HiC Grape..YUM
This new machine should keep me happy for a long time.

You don't need an account to view the videos. If you want to save videos as your favorites, then you need an account. Or if you want to post your own videos.

OK, I just saw that video.
This new fountain is just amazing!
IMO....this new machine is just the "shot in the arm" that will
will create some brand buzz and increase fountain sales.
I'm betting that this machine will become a "destination" sales demand for
all sorts of retail/restaurants (fast food and self serve buffets).
