Considering the recent loss of Fuji FP100C, this is potentially very good news.

If they can obtain good colors and retreivable negative for a reasonable price it would be fantastic news. I love using FP100-C on my large format camera but a full-sized 4x5 color instant film would be even better.

This is good news, and I appreciate what they're doing. I am bit concerned that they may be biting off more than they can chew.

I saw a video somewhere of them doing a test peel. The colour looked pretty decent...

If I understand correctly, there would not be a negative. Positive only.

It would broaden their potential customers, that's for sure.

Even though I've been serious about photography since the 1970's, I just started using Fuji packfilm this year and my results have been so good with the first two packs and a cheap camera, that I'm now commited to this film and will shoot it forever.

If New55 keeps it alive, that's great.

Do the New55 people read APUG?

Yes they do . And you can pre-order now on their website to test out if there is a market for New55 color:
