Polaroid Launches Ink-less, Mobile Phone Printer

It's been quite a while since Polariod developed something unique in the consumer electronics world. Back from the dead, it has unveiled another powerful product called Polaroid Digital Instant Mobile Photo Printer, a wireless, ink-less mobile printer designed for mobile phones and digital cameras.

In this digital world, it is really nice to regress and appreciate tangible photos. That's why it's very clever of Polariod to position it as "instant pictures, but for the digital age."

You can connect your mobile phones to this printer via Bluetooth while a USB cable is provided for digital cameras.

This pocket-sized device is developed in partnership with ZINK Zero Ink Printing Technology. It has a patent-pending paper made of "composite materials with embedded yellow, magenta and cyan dye crystals". Once activated by heat, this colorless paper quickly brings your photos to life.
