Doesn't sound like they'll be doing DSLR sensors, maybe cell phone and
cheap P&S sensors.


More like they aren't doing any yet.. Do you have an in at Kodak that told
you they have no plans for anything other than sell phone sensors?

I do know someone at Kodak. If they bought a company to get into CMOS
sensors,(as did Dalsa) it's likely they are in it to cater to the
high-volume, mass market products like cell phones or cheap digitals
and not higher end products. Their statement that they "might get
back into DSLRs later"
is a loser's proposition, if they mean it.
