Polaroid Announces The Digital Shoot and Print Camera, The PoGo

When I originally wrote about the PoGo last May I was under the impression that it would be a stand alone printer that would utilize ZINK technology.  Turns out I was wrong; well, partially wrong.  The Polaroid PoGo is in fact a digital iteration of the original Polaroid camera.  Built-in to the unit is a 5 megapixel camera, ZINK printer for instant prints, 3-inch LCD screen and SD card slot.  The PoGo is capable of printing 2×3″ color prints in less than 60 seconds and weighs 10oz.

The Polaroid PoGo will be available this March for $199 at all major retailers.  A 10-pack of the ZINK paper costs $5, where as a 30-pack is just $13.

Grew up back East, got sick of the cold and headed West. Since I was small I have been pushing buttons - both electronic and human. With an insatiable need for tech I thought "why not start a blog focusing on technology, and use my dislikes and likes to post on gadgets."

    Polaroid actually has two different products: 1) the Pogo printer that works with phone cameras or digital cameras and is just a printer, and 2) the newly announced Zcam that is a printer and digital camera combined. I have used the Pogo with friends and at a BBQ and it is a lot of fun. The best is when your phone has blue tooth – then it prints wirelessly.
