Post Card Machine
Posted by Suhit Gupta in "HARDWARE" @ 01:00 PM
"In Japan, postal cards are not used to cause envy amongst the colleagues who stayed behind at work or the less-fortunate family members at home, but they are used to communicate your wishes and also as a corporate communication channel. Casio presents this fully autonomous machine with a keyboard, a screen and a printer. You can just hook up your digital camera or slip your cards into the CF/SD slot, and start modifying and brushing up your pictures. The machine also can print the back of the cards in case you have a horrible handwriting."
So I never actually send postcards to anyone, even though I promise tons of people when I am traveling abroad. :) But this would be a great way to create custom post cards, i.e. take pictures on vacation, come home and make your custom post card and then send it out to family/friends. Very unique idea IMHO.
