[9:00 AM] Polaroid May Be Bringing Latest Web Product To The Mac by Kyle D'Addario Polaroid has recently announced a new I-Zone product, the I-Zone Webster. Following the successful I-Zone Instant Pocket Camera, the I-Zone Webster will allow users to instantly digitize images for download into their PC. At this time, however, PC means "Windows." The news is not all bad, however. One Observer, Pete Kline, sent an e-mail to Polaroid suggesting that Mac compatibility be included. According to Mr. Kline:
While this does not specifically indicate that the product is actually in the works, it can be taken as potentially positive news from Polaroid. We'd like to offer a Mac Observer pat on the back to Mr. Kline for evangelizing the Mac. The Mac Observer Spin: Consumer products of this nature are only going to get more popular. In fact, it is our opinion that manipulating images is one of the top reasons for many consumers to buy computers. We can hope that Polaroid will in fact bring this product to the Mac for that reason. |
