Polaroid is ceasing production on all instant cameras and films

that sucks, there is nothing like getting all drunk, and having all night sex sessions with a polaroid and my wife

digital just isn't the same

Yup, not the same, looks sharper, typically better optics, and you can produce prints of just about any size with the megapixel ratings available today.

If it weren't for the old folks who still fear computers, film in general might not be far behind. I think my grandparents still use a 110 for their snapshots.

I doubt 35mm will ever completely die, but I could see it being relegated to artistic endeavors. Snapshots are already dominated by digital as are things like journalistic photography.

I know there will be a few photographers in LA pretty upset, if not already

there are some DIE HARD Polaroid users out there in porn land

Hmmm, picture on a flash drive connected to the USB port behind your ear, can it be far away?:(

Yes, but it's just not a valid business model anymore.

Buggy whips man....buggy whips....
