This camera is junk..........2007-04-25

I bought this camera because it was cheaper and thought that a company such as Polaroid would put out a decent camera. Nope. As everyone has stated the picture quality is HORRIBLE. Unless you have the perfect light then don't bother taking the picture. The flash (like stated) washes out faces or it's dark. The time between flash and actual picture is crazy. I have bought brand new batteries only for it to shut off 30 seconds later. The settings reset with every picture. It's a horrible, horrible camera. I have lost many photos with this camera and would do better with a disposable. Do not waste your money.

Horibble Flash and VERY SLOW.......2007-03-17

This was my first digital camera -it was bought in kind of a hurry because I wanted to get one before I went on a trip. IT'S HORRIBLE! I guess it's sufficient if you really just want a camera, but besides that, it's just bad. The flash is the main problem. Without the flash you have to be in perfect light to get a decent picture (meaning in order to see anything) and with the flash you have to be at the perfect distance (in order to see any faces). Most of my pictures taken with this camera are either too dark to see anything or extremely bright so everyone/ everything is washed out. I went to a banquet at a hotel and out of about 20 pictures,maybe 5 look good -I finally just gave up: it was ruining the banquet for me because I was constantly fiddling with this, trying to get decent pictures. I took it to prom and even with the flash, all the pictures in the limo and inside the actual prom are pitch black. Also, at the after-prom event, where there was florescent lighting, the backgrounds are all dark and most faces are either washed out or really dark. I've tried everything -fiddling around with all the settings and different lightings -like I said, you pretty much have to be in perfect conditions.
The second main problem is that it takes FOREVER to take pictures. From the time you take the picture to the time it actually shows up on the screen and you can take another one is easily almost 10 seconds (at least more than 5 sec). Because I bought it from Target, opening the package rendered it unreturnable, plus it is better than no camera at all. My camera phone literally takes pictures as good if not better than this camera. What was good about this camera? It was cheap (even though its still not even worth what it costs) and it taught me, you truly get what you pay for. I'm finally getting a new camera -I decided to go ahead and shell out some cash this time -hopefully it will turn out better. So to sum it up:
1. Horrible flash -needs the perfect conditions to take decent pics
2. Takes forever to take pictures
3. You're better off with a camera phone
I really expected more from such a big, well-known company, despite the price. Hopefully you won't make the same mistake I did. Pretty much thanks to this camera, I have hardly any pics of some the most important times of my life (graduation, prom, and my last school banquet).

Worst purchase ever.......2007-01-30

We got this camera for a very low price, but never have I stayed so bitter about a purchase for so long. Photos without flash are invariably blurry, photos with flash or outdoors are ridiculously overexposed, and sometimes still blurry! Even the simplest photos in ideal conditions come out horribly. I have bought and used several different cheap/lower end digital cameras, but this is the most horrible product I have ever laid hands on. If anyone knows how to file an official complaint with Polaroid (that they'll pay attention to), let me know. I should never have opened that packaging.

Disappointing!!!.......2006-12-12

I recieved this camera for by last birthday and wished that I had returned it! First off, the camera came with absolutely NO instructions. I have some knowledge of cameras so I messed with all the functions but instructions would have been helpful! Secondly, to this date, I only have been able to have it take one decent picture--which I totally had to photoshop & turn into black & white. All my other pictures have turned out blurry or too dark. Thirdly, the LCD screen SUCKS! It is slow, grainy and totally blurry so it is hard to focus on whatever you are taking a picture of. For a long time I thought that it was just me having so many problems but after reading all the reviews, I am obviously not he only one! One thing that is positive is that the software is easy to use and the pictures upload quickly but what is the point if you can get a good picture!!! I got so fed up with this camera that I had to have my sister take pictures with her Sony digital camera for all of our family get togethers or use my video camera! I am getting a Kodak that is $200.00+ for my birthday this year and am hoping that it is a better experience! Anyway, my advice to anyone thinking about this camera--SKIP IT!

Have Used Better.......2006-12-10

I got this camera as a gift and wished I could get the money back for the person who bought it. I have used better digital cameras. I have taken self-pics and they look distorted. I compare pics of friends' cameras of me and I don't like this one. The camera goes through batteries like crazy.

Great Sound.......2003-04-15

Although it is a bit bulky, it is so rugged! it would take more then a hammer to break this thing... and the sound it produces is AMAZING! the best sound from a cd player i've ever heard! Plus ther is never any skipping.

Solid.......2002-10-22

I bought this CD player last year when I started seriously running to train for a marathon. I found this CD player was fine to run with, but after about 4 miles it became a bit heavy to carry and I had to switch hands a lot to keep from getting tired. This CD player is fine if you are only going to run 2-3 miles at a time, but if you are going to run more, I would suggest checking out a Nike MP3 player which is much lighter and will play double the amount of music.

With that said, this is a good CD player, but it is a bit heavy for running. It does do a nice job of not skipping, and the fact it is water resistant is a nice feature many electronic devices do not have.

Sony needs to come out with a Sports/MP3 player.

TDK takes CD burner performance to the next level with the ultimate veloCD burner. Only veloCD gives you the world's fastest writing, rewriting and audio ripping performance. True to the TDK heritage of digital audio excellence, the new veloCD burner offers bit-perfect and fast digital audio extraction.

With speedy ripping and writing, the new TDK veloCD burner offers a one-drive alternative for CD-to- CD-RW recording that's better sounding and takes less than half the time of most two-drive setups.

Nice for the price.......2001-09-14

A nice little phone that meets all my needs. Clarity is much better than previous cordless.

Only one problem.......2001-07-13

A very nice little phone. Only problem is that we can't get the Caller ID to work. We have tried everything.

Excellent Cordless Phone.......2001-05-21

The Toshiba FT8809 cordless phone is an excellent phone to buy when you are looking for a cordless phone with Caller ID. I also have another cordless phone, but it does not have Caller ID and is still working pretty good. I just wanted to have caller ID in the palm of my hand. With my old cordless phone I would always end up leaving the phone somewhere where I could not find it, so the feature on the Toshiba Cordless phone that enables you to locate/page your phone when you don't know where it is is good feature to have. For you people who always seem to misplace things get this phone you won't ever have to worry about losing it in your home. And programming and/or saving numbers in this phone is very easy to do and not at all that complicated. Personally I did not have to look at the instructions. It is pretty much easier to program than a digital cell phone, although it works like a digital cell phone. The only thing I wish it had is a little red light that blinks repeatedly after new callers have called and you did not answer the phone or were not at home. You have to press the CID button (Caller ID) in order to see who called lately, it will say NEW CALLS:1 or so. But overall it is an excellent buy.
