Overall Assessment
How much would you pay for this? $200 to $400
Comments: "I liked the delete option because bad hair days don't get etched on Kodak paper. I'd use it if I had it around, especially for those silly funny pictures that you want to see immediately. It's the beauty of having Polaroid on hand, only a lot cheaper and the photos come out better."
