the end of an era! for all of you that don't know yet: Polaroid will stop producing instant film by the end of 2008 (as soon as they manufactured enough to last it through 2009). thank you Mr. Land for this uncomparable estethics that will nevertheless slowly disappear from mother earth to be a part of history. BUT: Polaroid said it would happily license the technology to other manufacturers if they want to go on supplying the niche market with film after 2009. somebody should DO that!
