I’m torn on the CVS One Time Use Digital Camcorder reviewed by Rainy Day Magazine. I’m opposed to pretty much anything disposable, but I also hate carrying expensive stuff around when travelling – then you have to worry about setting it down at a cafe, leaving it in the room, getting it too near the ocean, etc. Gizmodo hits it on the head – maybe good for vacations when you forget your camera or at weddings for guests to fool around with. If you’re handy, BoingBoing has a listing of the pinouts so you can figure out how to download from it and use it repeatedly. What do you think? Good for a carefree minimalist, or evil consumer trash?
One Response to ““Disposable” video camera – good or bad?”
Something to say?
my boyfriend has one of these and he hacked into it to make it reusable, i am pretty sure that is the only reason he bought it so he could hack into it but at least it doesn’t have to be disposable.
