Polaroid PoGo, the tiny digital camera with its own onboard printer

polaroidprint_8.jpg

You may have heard of Zink in past CES shows — miniaturized printer tech that fits inside a small digital camera. Now that idea has found its way into an actual product, the Polaroid Pogo. Take a pic with the camera, and 60 seconds later out slides a borderless 2 x 3-inch adhesive-backed print.

Want to tweak your photos before printing? Fix up red eye, crop, and do a lot more with the image-fixing software inside. This is what Polaroid wished its cameras could do back in the '70s. Remarkable.

Shipping in March for $199, you can also get a tiny Zink printer for $99, but the bad news? 30-packs of photo paper are a steep $12.99.

I wouldn't have said "tiny" but it's certainly as small as it possibly could be. Very impressive and incredibly ironic. With that lens, it won't sell at that price point, though. They need to sell the camera for under a hundred.

Bonjour, je veux offrir le POGO Camera à mon fils. Pouvez-vous me dire où l'acheter et à quel prix en euros ?
Merci, sincères salutations
