The Polaroid is Dead; Long Live the Polaroid

I just love, love, innovation. Just when you think some technology has become obsolete, necessity steps in to prove that invention knows few if any boundaries. The Polaroid company just recently declared bankruptcy. But at this month's (Jan.) Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show, the company revealed a new product – the PoGo, a $200.00 camera that takes your photos, and then prints them out, just the way you remember. It's a combination of modern day digital camera, and ultra small printer, designed to be a direct replacement of their old point-and-print photo taker. Congratulations to the people at Polaroid. If they can continue to innovate like this, they could very well revive their struggling company.
