Secrets of the City

Polaroid will sell or lease their patent and instant film will become a boutique item that you can buy, most likely at a premium price. Fuji is already making some of the pack film variety and it’s good quality.

This hurts the professional market more than the consumer market though. I highly doubt anyone is going to produce the films for 4×5 and 8×10 cameras. Formats that still use film because the images will have applications larger than just a Flickr account.

just because you’re Polaroid, don’t mean they aren’t after you.

so evidently sellling the name to Mr. Petters raised enough capital to build an instant digital printer but not enough to keep the old film business running.

dang.

I would assume that the digital printer will have the ability to have the white bordered old school film look.

Regardless of how you feel about the demise of Polaroid instant film, the new digital photo frame they are working on could be pretty cool. Not a sufficient replacement, but cool nonetheless.

I used to know a guy who collected couple’s Polaroid “artwork” from their sock drawers. I imagine his collection’s value spurted with this news.

Seminal art collections such as this must be preserved so that our children will one day be able to enjoy them.

I don’t want my children enjoying any of your seminal collections.

What do Eskimos get from sitting on the ice too long?

Polaroids!

Ach…sorry about that Teuce…I’m hopped up on Girl Scout cookies and Diet Coke.

Polaroids!

Hey-ohhhhhhh!

Oi! I absolutely and completely deny this malicious insinuation that I indulge in so much self-abuse, I get corporate sponsorship.

I’ll preserve them for my children but not my children’s children because children shouldn’t be having sex.

I wondered why you had a Vaseline tattoo…

Maybe just a small federal grant, then, Teucer?

Handjobs not handouts, that’s what I always say.

Heyooo!

@Teucer exhaults “Handjobs not handouts, that’s what I always say“

All the finest systems have an intrinsic level of self sufficiency.

exhaults?
The H and the U are silent.

I’ll have you know I was exhorting and, if pressed, I might admit to a bit of exulting. But I was certainly not exalting! How dare you impugn both my honor and honour in this manner, sir?
