Er...

So basically this is a Polaroid Pogo? We have one. It's not intended to be a replacement for a traditional printer but it's cute, spits out pretty good pictures from a mobile, and is more than adequate for making small photo albums or scrap books. Paper's quite expensive though, about £18 for 70 sheets from Amazon.

FUJIFILM

FUJIFILM has been using Thermal Autochrome paper for quite some time for photo printing, and the quality is a lot better than the Dye-sublimation printers out there.
A different temperature for each primary colour...

Zink a different type of paper tho, but it looks like the quality is very very good.

Did you look at the PR shot, or go the web link or look at the demos or read about the 100+ patents they have which show that it IS going to be used for holidays snaps and NO it isn't standard thermal paper.

Strange photo

The way to check if paper is normal thermal transfer paper is rub it with your fingernail and the friction heats and colours the paper. It's fine for pure black and white labels and barcoding, but I wouldn't try and use a full colour photo.

Unless this paper requires a lot more heat than standard thermal paper, it's not going to be used for printing out holiday snaps.

@psychochief

Well, the expensive ink has simply mutated to "expensive paper".

Authorities in several countries raided Megaupload recently, shut down all of its services, seized hundreds of servers and arrested several of its executives on criminal charges.

Do you think the move was justified?
