Polaroid pictures once again fun with PoGo

Some of you kids probably don’t know what Outkast was taking about when they said “shake it like a Polaroid picture,” but those of you  all too familiar with the days of instant photos probably still have a few of them hiding in your closet. Yeah, those days were cool, but we certainly don’t miss them now that  we have digital photography.  No matter, Polaroid is bringing back the days of instant photos with a cool little printer they call PoGo (short for Polaroid-on-the-go). PoGo is a pocket-sized printer you can carry in your purse or backpack that uses Bluetooth to print snapshots stuck in your cell phone. You can also print pictures taken with your digital camera if it has PictBridge, although you’ll need a cable to do that. The printer is inkless, so you’ll have to buy special paper from Zink that creates an image in less than 60 seconds when it heats up. The pocket-sized printer will be available next month at Target for a cool $149. zinkprinter.jpg
