Back in the days of the 1970s, if you wanted a photo instantly, you used a Polaroid camera, which not only took a photo, but also developed it instantly as well, coming as it did with its own technology for developing the print on special paper. Some years later, digital camera technology came along and all but killed off the film-based camera market, with pics that could be seen instantly, either on the camera's screen or on your PC.
So you'd think that Polaroid, whose sole unique selling point was the ability to show the pics you've taken instantly, would also be dead. But you'd be wrong. Turns out that we still like to see our pics on paper, and now that we're used to the instantaneous speed of seeing our pics in digital form that the digital camera offers, we also want to see our pics on paper, well, instantly.
Step forward Polaroid and their brand new, and rather neat looking, Polaroid PoGo Inkless Digital Photo Printer.
