Looking for that perfect accessory to accompany your Polaroid Pendant? Straight from the depths of Etsy comes this awesome Polaroid “Good Time” ring which constantly reminds us of our instant photography past. Before the time of point-and-shoot and easy preview LCD’s there was only the Polaroid.
Replace the image with any graphic you desire. The seller has chosen a sheep-goat-cow-ram thingy for posterity reasons. What sort of friggen’ animal is that anyway?
Can you still remember the satisfying click of a Polaroid camera? If you can, it’s about time you got a digital, just sayin’. I mean, you can create a Polariod effect with like, two clicks in Photoshop.
But if you’re still a Polaroid geek and proud of it, then don’t fuckin’ listen to me. I’m a douche bag anyway. You should totally rock your pride with this Polaroid Pendant necklace.
While Polaroid film is a dying medium, you can keep the memories going with this mirror that’s shaped like a Polaroid picture. No shaking required; just hold it up and admire how handsome you look, just like this guy. Better yet, take it with you on a date, drop it on the floor to look up your date’s skirt and you’ll have memories that will stay with you forever. Don’t tell them you heard about the idea on Gearfuse though, or they might smash your mirror and you’ll be out $29. No dice.
Polaroid as we know it might be no more, but the concept of Polaroid will be with us nostalgia junkies forever. When we were kids, our parents would snap a few Polaroid’s and pin them right on our cork billboard to show off to any visitor brave enough to venture inside (this usually only happened once).
The Digital Polaroid allows you to not only pin it on a similar bored, but also use it as a Polaroid-themed digital picture frame. Long live instant film! Regardless if its not instant anymore. — Andrew Dobrow
Celebrities who are followed by the paparazzi know best. You can’t always look your greatest when someone takes a candid snapshot of you and then darts away. The Snapshot Mirror at least gives you a little heads up on what you might look like if you were to be photographed.
Resembling a typical Polaroid-style picture, the framing of the mirror lets you admire your facial physique even when you don’t have a camera handy. You can pick up your own for $14. No refund if the mirror cracks when you take a look in the morning. — Andrew Dobrow
So after a day of praising all things Apple, it’s time to start looking at CES again; everyone gets a little sick of Apple after a while. When it came to pass that Polaroid would start making mp3 players, everyone’s expectations were not high. However, with the release of the MPA-2011, critics have started to change their minds and are now pleasantly surprised at what they are looking at. It’s about the same as many mp3 players out there these days, with maybe just a few little extras. This is a flash-based player with either 512MB or 1GB of memory; you can add up to 2GB more if you so desire with the microSD card slot.
If you’re not listening to music (think WMA/MP3), then you can watch movies (MPEG/WMV) on the 2.2â€? LCD screen. Most of the features are basic, including voice recording, FM tuner, and a JPEG photo viewer. One of the greatest things about this player is its battery life: 25 hours. That would be amazing on a weekend camping trip that has no electricity. At this point there is no word on pricing, but it is set to be sold in Target stores in March. — Nick Rice
