Polaroid: Help us convince Apple to add Bluetooth transfer support
Friday, January 30, 2009 at 11:06PM |
Glyn Evans The Unofficial Apple Weblog (TUAW) received an email from Polaroid asking for the assistance of iPhone owners to convince Apple to provide Bluetooth transfer support for the platform. Adding Bluetooth transfer support would make it possible for the iPhone to print to the Polaroid PoGo Instant Mobile Printer.
The PoGo is a pocket-sized inkless printer that prints full-color photos from cell phones using Bluetooth. Unfortunately, the iPhone doesn't have Bluetooth transfer capabilities, although a solution for jailbroken iPhones has been in the news lately. As a result, the PoGo and iPhone don't play together.
Polaroid would like to change that, and below is the extract from the email sent to TUAW:
"To encourage Apple to become compatible with the Polaroid Pogo printer, we are asking iPhone owners to submit an enhancement request form at the following link and to express their interest for better Bluetooth transfer capabilities including OPP profile so they can print to the Polaroid Pogo printer.

Thanks in advance for your help!"
I have posted this because I wanted to put the weight of the iPhoneography blog behind this campaign, so If like me you would like a pocket printer, then add your voice by requesting Bluetooth transfer support.
