Not surprisingly, this rocks my world.
Add an alarm clock/timer and a light and you’d have a Next Generation Teasmade. $49.99 at Nostalgia Electronics – alas, they’re sold out.

Reason # 3

Because film has a very different look from digital. Plastic cameras quite happily fill the needs of people who don’t want their pictures to look like everybody else’s. Think about it—when you go on social media and see the digital photos posted up there, don’t they have more or less the same look about them? There’s a reason for this: these cameras are specifically designed to deliver the same type of image. Sure, the colors might be a bit different here and there, but they still look basically the same. On the other hand, most film has a very warm, retro ambiance when used inside a plastic camera, far removed from that of digital. On a similar issue, black & white film frankly leaves digital B&W in the dust. There’s simply no comparison, and black & white film lends itself extremely well to plastic cameras. Now, there are some who ask, can’t you just recreate all those visual aspects with Photoshop over a digital image? Well, yes you could…but unless you’re a total computer techie who loves that kind of stuff, why would you want to spend all that time doing that? It makes much more sense to simply create the same thing in three seconds with the click of a shutter, doesn’t it?

Last night’s plane was 3 DAYS old. Definitely not one of those old west coast 737s with ashtrays still on the armrests…Wifi, power outlets at every seat, interactive LCD display on the seatback, and the shortest takeoff and landing I’ve ever felt.
