digital postcard for snail mail

By Martin English | February 9, 2006

Australian inventor Steve Calavey has invented a displosable digital camera that can be sent through the mail as a postcard.

‘Calvey’s Snap+Send Postcard, a disposable digital camera, is so light and inexpensive it can be sent in the mail. All it needs is a stamp. “You would buy it at a newsagent or photo developer, take a few shots and, once it’s full, you stick a stamp on it, address it and put it in the postbox,” Calvey says.
“Then grandma, or your girlfriend, gets it. They tear open the perforations, fold out a little kick stand on the back and sit it on a bench top. Then it’s as simple as pressing a button and it will go through a slide show of images.”’
