Should you really "shake it like a Polaroid picture?"
Ever since the song "Hey Ya" by Andre 3000 of Outkast came out, everyone is shaking their Polaroid pictures. Shaking or waving a Polaroid picture to help the development process originated in the early days of peel-apart film. After peeling the negative, the image needed to dry before it could be handled, so waving the photo helped it to dry more quickly. When using the integral films (600, Spectra, 500, SX-70/Time-Zero, i-Zone) that are used in our most popular current camera models (Polaroid One, OneStep, JoyCam, etc.), the image develops and dries behind a clear plastic window and never touches the air, so shaking or waving has no effect. In fact, excessive shaking or waving can actually damage the image. Rapid movement during development can cause portions of the film to separate prematurely, or can cause "blobs" in the picture. The best way to ensure a perfectly developed image is to simply lay the picture on a flat surface immediately after it exits the camera.

5 out of 5 stars just what the doctor ordered.......2007-09-21

there's nothing more fun than an instant picture, and this camera delivers. of course it's the only camera that does what it does, so not having any competition makes comparisons ahem, difficult. that said, the only thing that keeps me from snapping away more is the ridiculous price of film. but again, that's what happens when you have no competition. when is someone going to make a digital camera that prints its own pics? would be a killer ap.

5 out of 5 stars Groovy version of an old classic.......2007-08-03

There are times when only a Polaroid will do, this camera is sleek and compact and super easy to use, kids LOVE it and it is great when you want to SEE the photo in your hand while on the road, the camera is a baragin but watch the price of the film it can get pricey if you don't keep your snapping under control.

5 out of 5 stars Great Product.......2007-03-17

This camera works great. It stays in my car and gets bounced around a lot. I had a cheaper one (the basic polaroid model) and after any turbulace it would spit out 3 pictures at a time and none would turn out. At $1 a pic, that's not cost effective. I've had no problems with this and it works great everytime I've used it. Worth the extra couple bucks.

5 out of 5 stars Love this camera.......2007-01-10

This camera is such a pleasure to use. In freezing cold or searing heat -which we have a lot of in this area - it keeps cranking out the pictures. I also have a couple of digital cameras, but when I want a picture without having to deal with settings and other distractions, this is the camera I use. Love it!

5 out of 5 stars Polaroid One600 Classic Instant Camera.......2007-01-10

I have many choices of cameras to shoot from. But of all I own I love this classic Polaroid. It was delivered on-time, undamaged. I dropped the film in and started shooting pictures. Thanks to Polaroid for their consistently fantasic products. Thank you.

                  1 out of 5 stars Linux Friendly == No.......2005-01-10

                  ***WARNING: DO NOT BUY THIS LAPTOP IF YOU WANT TO RUN LINUX!!!***

                  There are so many unresolved hardware issues with this laptop that installing Linux is more pain than it is worth, especially if you want to run it in 64-bit native mode. Broadcom refuses to release specs on their hardware or an adequate driver for Linux, so you will NOT be able to run the integrated wireless chip at all! You will be forced to run in 32-bit mode only and use ndiswrapper and the WinXP binary driver.

                  There is also an issue with this laptop at the hardware level relating to the timer pin and IRQ routing. Due to a flaw in the design you will need to boot the kernel with option 'noapic' and disable these features. Even in Windows you will notice the issues due to this problem, like hard disk clicking and slow system response times in certain situations.

                  The ALPS touchpad is also not supported out of the box on any distros and requires a kernel patch to obtain functionality. The audio is pretty good overall, but some key features are missing under linux. The firewire controller acts quirky. The win modem onboard has no driver. The PC Cardbus slot needs an option to disable a memory range to get functionality. ACPI has issues, again due to the timing pin hardware issue. And to top it off, the easy access keys on the face of the keyboard are not all implemented and supported under Linux (not really HP's fault, right?). However, a majority of the issues with this laptop can be directly attributed to the fact that adequate design specifications and/or open source drivers were not made available for the components of this laptop.

                  5 out of 5 stars THIS LAPTOP LOOKS LIKE THE BOMB!!!.......2004-10-09
