    Default PoGo! are they worth the money?

    I have heard quite a few people mention these.What exactly do they do? Are they worth the money? Do they make paperwork easier?

    Yes they are worth the money - you print out your little pix instantly (and cheaply) and put it straight into the LJ, scrapbook etc.....

    Mine is a little tempremental... needs to be plugged in all the time to print, sometimes won't sync with the camera/phone/pc

    I never use mine

    The children loved the little sticker photos to take home, but they're not clear enough or big enough for my LJs.

    I know I'm in the minority though!

    I love mine for LJ's. Only complaint is same as others it will only work when plugged in, and if it hasn't been plugged in for a day or two it takes ages to charge up before I can use it again. Other than that its great!!!

    I only got mine last week and love it already. Its going to make my life easier as often forget where I put the photos for LJ's once I get them printed, now I just do it all in one. Must print off the photo to go with the obs I did yesterday and pop it in the file

    I love mine too.

    Wouldn't be without it.

    Although I get a bit carried away printing off the photos and go through loads of the paper

    It is compatable to any camera with "Pictbridge". Had to get a new camera as my old one was rubbish anyway so I made sure it definately had this. You can also use it with some mobile phones through bluetooth.

    I am a recent convert as I only got mine last week and I love it. My parents love it too as they can see what their little ones have done.

    I use mine daily, I print off pictures for their Lj's and I put occasional photos in the daily diaries.... parents love to see what their child is doing..it takes no time at all ....a big thumbs up from me

    I have HTC Sensation and thats fine for the printer as it has blue tooth on it
