For $11, skittish photographers can dip into digital
Topic: Technology 8:58 am EDT, Jul 28, 2003

] The Ritz Camera chain today will introduce a one-time-use
] digital camera for about the same price as a typical
] "disposable" film camera in about 100 of its stores.
] Walgreens, which was testing the camera in Madison, is
] expanding the test to all 140 Wisconsin pharmacy outlets.
] And Walt Disney World will begin selling the camera at
] its hotels and theme parks in the fall.
]
] The 2-megapixel Dakota Digital, which offers the image
] quality of a $200-$250 digital camera, doesn't have an
] LCD screen to view images, and doesn't connect to a
] computer.
]
] But users can delete their last shot if they think they
] missed it, and they can get prints back within 15 minutes
] after taking the camera in for processing, because no
] film has to be developed. A CD of digital images is
] included, so users can manipulate the files on their
] computer and share them via e-mail and Web sites.

Hmmm... $11 digital camera that "cant be interfaced to a computer"? This is screaming "HACK ME!!!"
