If you ask me, it’s a good job the palms of people’s hands are generally so compact, otherwise what would manufacturers describe their tiny products as fitting into? “Fits into your small-intestine” just doesn’t have the same ‘buy me!’ ring to it. Anyway, Canon is latest to roll out that old chestnut, claiming their Selphy [...]
Call me a dumb little plumpty but when I’m taking photos I’ve never had too much trouble identifying people’s faces. By that I don’t mean that I necessarily know who they are, but that I at least can differentiate between their face and, say, a pair of slippers.

Overshadowing the format has been a 2005 lawsuit by Nano-Proprietary Inc. for patent infringement, based on the collaboration between Toshiba and Canon (Nano-Proprietary [...]
So you’ve spent all the kids inheritance on that once-in-a-lifetime trip around the world, and you really want to rub the little buggers’ noses in it.
