RUMOR has it that Ricoh will change the name of the company to IKON Americas Corporation, effective August 1, 2009. RBS will fold into IKON, with several offices closing across the country. This new IKON direct organization will be the only distribution channel selling 'Ricoh' brand products, while the remaining "strong" Independent Dealers can sell Lanier and Savin (for a limited time) at an approximate 20% higher price than IKON will enjoy. RFG Dual Line Dealers will be requested to drop their other manufacturer's product line, in order to receive that pricing! They are preparing to replace the Ricoh logo on the headquarters building in New Jersey, yet Ricoh University will remain unchanged. Top RFG (Lanier and Savin brand) no longer have the ability to win a Dealer Trip, yet they can join the IKON National Trip to Venezuela next year. April Fool's! Oh sorry, it's only 3/25/09.
