Always good to see a new physical product on the market.

All is well but I decided not to part with $35 for this product - simply because 9 photos are there forever and you can't change that.

If you had a web interface where 10 of your photos could be selected and then projected, now that's what I'd be willing to pay for.

I'm sure it'll be a success though.

I will be reminded of how completely out of touch I am with reality these days if this does well. That said, I somewhat jokingly predicted this trend previously. With the explosive growth of digital information and electronics, I think we'll see a renaissance of analog, mechanical, and otherwise "physical" things.

Perhaps sometimes people don't want everything to be electronic/digital? Example: digital photo frames.

I have no doubt that, given the proper marketing, the cute factor will make this a trendy gift for one holiday, either Christmas or Valentine's. But it's definitely one of those neat little things that could get its 15 minutes and, for a bunch of folks, be hidden in a box somewhere as a small reminder of the weird shit we did along the way.
