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.

#13I 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.
Instagram itself shows people want broken analogue style things.
Digital photoframes + instagram style filters might be popular?

#15Why Instagram only? Their blog links to a Kickstarter update that explains that, but it is for Backers only.

I liked it very much, but then, why not just go straight to vinyl for the experience? See also: UK vinyl sales up 78 per cent in 2013: http://www.nme.com/news/various-artists/69832

#20I'd be a lot more inclined to believe it if I saw photos of the images being projected on a wall. Somehow I don't believe that tiny projector will look too good.
