 Lots of fun and very creative! October 17, 2008

First of all, this is really easy to use. I simply hooked it up to my camera, set my camera to browse photos and an option to print popped right up - it couldn't have been easier. The photos are pretty quick to develop and look great. I agree that the print quality is not perfect, but I actually like this - you can get kind of neat effects (nothing dramatic, but the prints have a particular feel to them, just like classic polaroid pics). If you are looking for precise realism, this isn't the printer for you. However, if you are looking for a fun way to give people a copy of the photo you just took or you want to create a collage or use these photos as part of an art project, etc., then I highly recommend the Pogo. I have thousands of photos stored on my computer but I almost never print them out because it seems like a hassle and gets expensive. However, I have already printed out 40 pogo pics and had a blast doing it!
How Cool is this? September 1, 2008

What a very cool product, I got it a few weeks ago and have had so much fun with it.
On the plus side:
*Unit is small (just a bit bigger than a deck of cards)
*it is so simple to use
*take it anywhere and a ton of fun
*does not need ink
*can run on batteries
*bluetooth your pictures to it from you cell phone
*There is nothing out there like it
Wish it had:
*Larger size (I hope they are working on one already)
*longer battery life (only 15 prints per charge)
I took mine on the plane last week and then to dinner, it received so much attention, what a blast. So many people were asking "what is that" and "can you take a picture of me". I hope they come out with one that prints larger sizes. The pictures are very good quality (better than polaroid instant, but not HD quality) but then again the fun factor is what this is made for, and if you like a picture you can print as many as you want.
I give it a thumbs up, can't wait till the next model (Come on Polaroid!)
For a first run, I say home run, they could tweek it a bit and it would be perfect.
The surprise on their unsuspecting faces... October 31, 2008

This is not about DPI or anything like that. We're not saving the world or even trying for a very large or accurate representation of it. However! When you can use your phone to take a picture of someone and instantly print it on a printer they're holding in their hands, the look on the face of the subject makes this printer TOTALLY WORTH IT.
You may want to wait for v2, however, because you'll probably inherit broader support from bluetooth and pictbridge devices (both of mine work, no problem, however my usb/bluetooth dongle thinks this printer is a PIM or something and wants to exchange business cards or something with it). meh.
Also, v2 may have longer battery life and *if we're lucky?* a smaller recharging brick (no kidding, the charger is LARGER than the printer). But, seriously, try my experiment:
Turn the printer on and hand it to a co-worker, especially someone that you want to make smile. Then ask them if you can take their picture with your phone. Say: "hold this a second, can I take your picture?" (as though you just want a record of this person). Take the picture and say "thank you" then, quickly now, before they lose focus, tell your bluetooth-enabled mobile camera phone to send-via-bluetooth and voila! the machine makes a soft wirr and kazaa! presto! the person is soon holding a picture of him-or-herself!
Then you can tell them to keep it.
"Hey, Jeff, can I take your picture?"
"Depends on what you're going to do with it."
"Give it to you, if this works..."
"Um... ok"
"Wow, that's really cool"
(an actual exchange)

PS: SERIOUSLY recommended for people who are in desperate need of attention from those around him-or-her (such as myself, honestly).

after reading a few mixed reviews i was a little worried about purchasing the pogo. i am glad i decided to give it a go. i have only printed off my blackberry and the quality was far better than i expected. soon i will try with my camera and i am sure that the quality will be even better. i am very pleased with this little device.
Very useful December 5, 2008

This is a very nifty little gadget. The pictures are good quality, they don't bleed or run, and they're the perfect size for the wallet. Bad points: one charge lasts for about a pack of ten sheets. Still, a great little device.
