 A great piece of kit September 30, 2008

I ordered one of these having played with a friend's. I was a little concerned by some of the reviews here, but I'd seen one in the flesh, as it were, so was pretty sure it'd be OK. As often happens I found a lot of the negative comments to be wrong or not to be deal breakers (for me).
I've been really impressed with the Pogo so far, and my daughter's been having a great time with it. It's really easy to send photos from my mobile, and the prints come out very quickly. Setting it up was pretty seamless (though it took me a little time to work out which way the paper went in). Once set up you can take the Pogo anywhere and get near instant prints.
My daughter now has photos stuck all over her things. Her generation are more used to seeing photos on PC screens so the prints are a real novelty for her.
The packaging is pretty nice. Looks like Polaroid have been following Apple's example here. (Seems superficial to mention this, but it helps make a good first impression.)
One suggestion I'd make is for the photo paper to have a break on the backing to make it easier to remove it when you want to stick the photo somewhere. (Maybe I just find it tricky because I bite my nails!)
As for the criticisms, the one I'd agree with is: why does it have to come with a non-standard power adaptor? I've not marked it down for this since it seems to be true of all digital cameras in the market (or at least the ones I've seen) so it would be unfair to single the Pogo out. Can't someone legislate to enforce a standard charger?
So apart from that non-dealbreaker, I can definitely recommend the Pogo as a fun gift for anyone who has kids, or is young at heart.

I've just got my second pogo (bought the bundle with paper as I know how much you get through once you start) as I had to relinquish my first one to my niece! It's amazing how useful this little gadget is - my niece has been using it for school projects (much cheaper than one of those photobooks you can make online)and I have now used it to put photos on shoe boxes, on a card for my gran (me in Florence)and even on the dog's bed. It's as much fun as the old instamatics and if you're a dab hand with your mobile phone cam, you get good quality results. Useful note for those not happy with print quality - make sure you always run the blue sheet (in the media pack) through first, it does something to clean the unit I think, I forgot once and noticed a drop in quality.
Thank you Polaroid! October 1, 2008

I've only had my PoGo for a few days, but I'm loving it already!
So far, I've printed out loads of fun pics taken at parties with friends. Photos that would have otherwise stayed buried on my camera memory stick are now seeing the light of day and brightening up my desk at work.
I had no trouble linking up to my Canon camera and I was pleasantly surprised at the great quality of the photos when they were printed. The photos also came out dry to the touch, so I didn't have to worry about smearing.
Thank you Polaroid! I'm very impressed with my new toy and can't wait to try it out with my camera-phone in the pub tomorrow night!

My pogo arrived today and I'm very pleased with it. I had read a few early reviews from various sited that said that colours were either washed out or not a true representation of the actual image so I didn't have very high expectations of it. The prints that I have done so far either meet or exceed my expectations of it, some have turned out very close to the original shot, others are sometimes slightly too yellow or red in places. If you buy this printer as a modern replacement for the original Polaroid instant cameras then you won't be disappointed as they too were never renowned for their photo quality. It's a neat little printer that does what it's intended for well, having fun with instant prints. If you are wanting something that gives the same quality prints as a regular photo printer then look elsewhere.

I have bought my Polaroid PoGo a month ago and was amazed what a good device that is. My phone (with 5 megapixel camera), works well with the printer - I am really pleased with picture quality.
It is a great fun to have PoGo - I took it with me when I went on a city break and made many pics/stickers that I used as postcards and sent to my friends!
